If you're interested in participating in Mozilla's GSoC program, you can choose from the list below, '''but you do not have to'''. You can submit a proposal for your own idea. You should look at the [[Community:SummerOfCode19:Brainstorming|guidelines]], though, and discuss your ideas or application in the #introduction channel on IRC.Mozilla.org. This is important, as GSoC projects '''must have''' a supporting member of the Mozilla community to evaluate and mentor them, named in the application.
Please bear in mind that a '''preexisting relationship with Mozilla is not a requirement for a successful GSOC proposal'''. While participating in Bugzilla is a good way to become familiar with how Mozilla works, "spamming" bugzilla Bugzilla to establish your ''bona fides'' or improve your chances of a successful application has not historically been a successful approach. We're grateful for our volunteers' contributions, as always, but often that effort would be best put towards focusing on the proposal or proposals you are specifically interested in, and put putting your effort into crafting an application for them specifically.
