Orgs should have medium and large projects available in their Project Ideas lists. Small project ideas are not required for orgs, but if the smaller size project works for your org they should be included in your Organization’s Ideas List." >> >>Find our wikipage for organization here: https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Google_Summer_of_Code_2024 >>To edit the page, reach out to an XSF member to enter your input or you’ll need a wiki account, which we’ll happily provide for you.
