Hi everybody,
my name is Federico Capoano and I am a contributor of
OpenWISP.org (a
software project aimed at making it easy to deploy and manage wifi
networks) and
Ninux.org (an Italian wireless community). Some of you
have met me when I came to California in 2014 and at the battlemesh v8
in Slovenia.
I'm writing here to inform you that these projects are participating to
the Google Summer of Code 2017 and there are many opportunities for
university grade students to do paid work on open source software
related to mesh networking.
At these URLs you can find the proposed project ideas:

Ninux is participating with Freifunk, together with many other
organizations (Guifi, Wlan Slovenia, Libremesh, ecc.):

If you know any student that may be interested, let them know!
Thanks
Federico
