    Infrastructure Provided to Students

    + +

    In 2005, the FreeBSD Project provided access to the FreeBSD +Perforce revision control infrastructure in order to facilitate +student collaboration, provide public access and archiving for the +on-going student projects, and to help mentors and the community +monitor on-going work. It is expected that students participating in +the 2006 program will be offered the same facilities, and that unless +there is a strong argument otherwise, that those facilities will be +used for 2006 projects. Students will also be asked to maintain wiki +pages on their on-going projects. In the past, e-mail, IRC, and +instant messaging have proven popular among students and mentors, and +students participating in the FreeBSD summer program are encouraged to +use these and other electronic communication mechanisms to become +active in the community.
