Open Source Comes to Campus/UMD/Call for volunteers

= Help teach students near DC make their first open source =

Call for volunteers: Sun 2/26

This weekend, in College Park, there's a free-of-cost workshop to teach college students how to contribute to open source, and to give them a hands-on opportunity to submit their first patch.

Can you help?

We're looking for volunteers to, on Sunday, be an in-person mentor for students' first contributions.

Attendees will be looking for good open source projects to contribute to, and with your help, they can gain valuable experience by submitting a patch to an issue in your project! You can also help Sunday by being a mentor for any project, not just your own.
