This is a quick reminder that the Xen Project is again participating in Outreachy (formerly known as OPW/Outreach program for Women).

Outreachy is the successor of the Outreach Program for Women. Please see its page for the information about the May 2015 round of interships.
Outreach Program for Women has been helping women (cis and trans), trans men, and genderqueer people get involved in free and open source software. It provided a supportive community for beginning to contribute any time throughout the year and offered focused internship opportunities twice a year with a number of free software organizations. This work is continued by Outreachy, with the goal of expanding the program to more participants from underrepresented backgrounds.
