* Please provide: 
19 1
** Your name
20 1
** A phone number
21 1
** An email address where we can reach you for daily communication.

h2. Requirements 
25 1
26 1
* We are looking for people who have strong programming backgrounds, there is no time to "learn on the job".  
27 1
** Most of the positions will require advanced ability and experience in *C++* and/or *Python*. 
28 1
*** Exception might be for help working on the website itself
29 1
** Most of the projects require knowledge of computer vision techniques. If so, your application will not be accepted if you don't have such experience. These will be stated on the projects ideas page. 
30 1
31 1
Again, you must meet the requirements -- it is not enough to "want" to work on computer vision, we have limited time and so we need people who already have the necessary background. If you lack this background, spend the next year getting the background and apply then, we intend to be back for GSoC 2013.
32 1
33 1
Students will be expected to ''meet'' with their mentors by email, skype or google chat once a week and to twitter at least 2x/day on their current coding activities
