<p>I am willing to be a mentor for the Outreachy program if the
project is regarding FreedomBox, but I think we really missed the
deadline this time. <br>
</p>
<p>I don't know if we will be able to send in an application today.
There are already two projects on the Debian Outreachy page [1].
And Debian is planning to take two interns this time [2].</p>

<div dir="ltr">It is great that you want to contribute to
FreedomBox as a part of Outreachy. I think for now a
possibility would be to propose "Install FreedomBox in a
Container", which is listed as a GSoC project this year with
confirmed mentors Sunil Mohan Adapa, Dashamir Hoxha. Looking at
the timeline perspective you can also work on some of the
critical issues on Plinth <a
href="https://salsa.debian.org/freedombox-team/plinth"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://salsa.debian.org/freedombox-team/plinth</a>
as part of your Outreachy project.Also as the deadline for a
project to be listed under Outreachy is March - 8 (Today). I
doubt this would be possible in such a short span.
<div><br>
<div>Also, I can mentor you on this project as I have
experience with Containers in my previous GSoC with
FOSSASIA, and an experience mentoring students as a Code-In
mentor but I am not sure if I qualify as a mentor as I was
not actively involved in the community for the past one
year. Also as I am not involved with the administration of
the project, someone else has to get FreedomBox listed as an
outreachy project under debian.</div>

if listing the project under Outreachy is not possible, you

</span>I was participating last year as mentor last year but
I won't have<br>
enough time to spare this time. Let us hope others step in
and you find<br>
a mentor and a good project within FreedomBox.<br>
