<p>I'm happy to announce that Lektor is participating as a project in this year's
<a href="http://railsgirlssummerofcode.org/">Rails Girls Summer of Code</a> (RGSOC).
Unlike what the name would suggest, RGSOC is open for all Open Source projects
and not just Ruby.</p>
<p>The goal of RGSOC is to bring more women into programming. To quote the
website:</p>
<blockquote><p>Rails Girls Summer of Code is a global fellowship program aimed at bringing
more diversity into Open Source. Successful applicants are paid a monthly
stipend, from July-September, to work on Open Source projects of their
choice.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Lektor was accepted as a participating project. For more information about
the project there refer to the <a href="https://railsgirlssummerofcode.org/blog/page/36/" class="ext">project overview on
RGSOC</a>.</p>
<p>We want to make it as easy as possible to work on Lektor during the event which
is why we will be very flexible with regards to which area interested
developers want to work on.</p>
<p>If you are interested in working on Lektor you can reach out to us via
Twitter at <a href="https://twitter.com/getlektor">@getlektor</a> or
<a href="https://gitter.im/lektor/lektor"
class="js-gitter-toggle-chat-button">Gitter</a>.</p>
