The Xen Project Advisory Board will be sponsoring one intern for '''Round 10''' of [https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy Outreachy] (formerly known as the GNOME Outreach Program) which runs from May 25, 2015 to August 25, 2015. The Outreach Program helps people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software get involved. This program is an expansion of the Outreach Program for Women (OPW) and this round is open to all participants of the Ascend Project (not just women) regardless of gender. Our goal is to increase the participation of underrepresented groups in the Xen Project. It is a continuation of the very successful GNOME Outreach Program for Women and we are running the program in conjunction with GNOME and other prominent open source projects.
