+Title: Debian joins Free & Open Source Software Outreach Program for Women
+Date: 2013-04-08 12:01
+Tags: gsoc, opw, announce
+Slug: joining-opw
+Author:  Ana Guerrero
+Status: draft
+
+The GNOME Foundation started the [Free & Open Source Software Outreach
+Program for Women, OPW](http://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen),
+in 2010. In the January-April 2013 round, many other FOSS organizations
+joined the program. We are happy to announce that Debian will also join
+in the next round from June-September and we'll offer one internship.
+
+You can find more details about Debian's participation in the program
+at [Debian OPW page](http://wiki.debian.org/OutreachProgramForWomen).
+
+
+## Call for mentors and projects
+
+OPW allows applicants to work on any kind of project, including coding,
+design, marketing, web development... The [Debian Google Summer of Code projects](http://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2013/Projects)
+will be offered also as possible projects for OPW, but GSoC
+only allows coding projects. If you have any idea of a non-coding
+project and you want to mentor it, please contact us in the
+[soc-coordination mailing list](http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/soc-coordination)
+adding [OPW] in subject.
+
+OPW works in the same way as GSoC except Google doesn't play a part here.
+The same advice that is provided for GSoC mentors works for OPW mentors.
+
+## Call for participants
+
+The main goal of this program is to increase the number of women in
+FOSS, so all women who are not yet a Debian Developer or a Debian
+Maintainer are encouraged to apply. There are no age restrictions and
+applicants don't need to be a student.
+
+If you want to apply, you must follow three steps:
+
+1. Choose a project [from this list](http://wiki.debian.org/OutreachProgramForWomen)
+There are two lists, one for GSoC and another with non-coding tasks that
+can be only offered by the OPW. Those lists may change and add or remove
+more projects in the next few weeks.
+
+2. Make a small contribution to Debian. Projects will add a task the
+applicant must complete as part of the pre-selection process. If no task
+is provided, you are welcome to ask the mentors of the project. You can
+also make a different extra task of the one listed to show your skills
+and interest.
+
+3. Create a page in the Debian wiki with your application. You can do so
+under pseudonym, but in that case, please give us information about
+yourself privately by email to the coordinators listed in the [Debian OPW page](http://wiki.debian.org/OutreachProgramForWomen)!
