As you probably know, on this year Jenkins projects participates in Google Summer of Code 2016. You can find more information about the accepted projects on the GSoC subproject page and in the Jenkins Developer mailing list.

On this week GSoC students are going to present their projects as a part of mid-term evaluation, which covers one month of community bonding and one month of coding.

We would like to invite Jenkins developers to attend these meetings. There are two additional months of coding ahead for successful students, so any feedback from Jenkins contributors and users will be appreciated.

Meeting #1 - June 23, 7:00 PM UTC - 9:00 PM UTC

Meeting #2 - June 24, 8AM UTC - 9 AM UTC

Both meetings will be conducted and recorded via Hangouts on Air. The recorded sessions will be made public after the meetup. The agenda may change a bit.
