+title: A Google Summer of Code with Bazel
+---
+
+I'm happy to announce that Bazel has been accepted as
+[a mentor organization](https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizations/6293241017139200/)
+for the
+[Google Summer of Code 2017](https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/).
+If you are a student and interested in working on Bazel this summer, please read
+on.
+
+Take a look at our
+[ideas page](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/wiki/Project-Ideas): it is
+not exhaustive and we may extend it over time, but it should give you a rough
+idea of what you could work on. Feel free to come up with your new ideas or
+suggest variations on our proposals. Not all projects on the page will be taken:
+we expect to accept up to three students. Students will not work with a single
+mentor, you can expect to interact with multiple people from the Bazel team
+(although there will be a main contact point). This will ensure you'll get
+timely responses and assistance, even if one of us goes on vacation.
+
+This is the first time we participate in Google Summer of Code, please bear with
+us if you miss some information. We will update our ideas page to answer the
+most frequent questions.
+
+If you have any question, please contact us on bazel-core@googlegroups.com
+
+I'm looking forward to hearing from you,
+
+_Laurent Le Brun, on behalf of the Bazel mentors._
