<h2>Summer Stipend</h2>
<p>Usually we participate in Google Summer of Code and are thus are able to give accepted students a stipend. It's not the case this year. Last year we've had a successful student supported by <ahref="https://thefreaks.club/">The Freaks Club</a>, you can reach thndrbvr and try your luck, or look for another sponsor.</p>

<h2>Ideas</h2>
<p>The community has not proposed ideas for 2021 yet. As the current development team is planning on major active development of v3 with NLnet sponsorship this year, as a student you can either try to join the development of v3 or contribute with plugins for v2, which is the latest release.</p>
