GSoC 2009 Contact Information

First things first
You must have a wiki account to be able to present your idea, so send a short e-mail to  and ask for it now.

IRC
IRC channel #scribus on Freenode.net is the main real-time hangout place where prospective GSoC students can communicate with the larger Scribus community and developers to get to know each other and discuss ideas and issues. IRC channel #scribus-dev on Freenode.net is the place for technical real-time communications related to Scribus development and GSoC day-to-day activities. Overall, this would be the main channel for students to be present in throughout the GSoC program.

Mailing Lists
