           <div>
             <p>This year, James developers will propose ideas of Google Summer of Code projects for students.</p>

 <p><a href="https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/">Google Summer of Code</a> is a global program focused on bringing more student developers into open source software development.
 Students work with an open source organization on a 3 month programming project during their break from school.</p>

 <p><img src="/assets/images/gsoc.png" alt="Google Summer of code communication image" /></p>

 <p>We consider it is a dreamed occasion to discover the Apache James project, and get on board in this amazing project!</p>

 <p>We are willing to offer high quality mentoring on high added value, useful tasks. As a student:</p>

 <ul>
   <li>🎓  You will discover how Open Source world works. You will exchange with our community.</li>
   <li>🎓  You will be advised by experienced, long term committers.</li>
   <li>🎓  You will build technical experience on a mail server.</li>
   <li>🎓  And hopefully you will get some code contributions on an Apache project.</li>
 </ul>

 <p>Here are some ideas of applications:</p>

 <ul>
   <li>
     <p>⚒ <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1931">JAMES-1931</a> We are in need of a WebAdmin User Interface to ease our beloved administrator API. You will need to build an administration website on top of the <strong>webAdmin</strong> REST API.</p>
   </li>
   <li>
     <p>⚒ <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1932">JAMES-1932</a> James allow to fully customize mail processing. But we miss tools to ease edition and testing of the processing flow.</p>
   </li>
   <li>
     <p>⚒ <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1933">JAMES-1933</a> Emails need to be secure. Many protocols like DKIM, SPF and DMARC allow to meet this purpose. However we need more documentation and a DMARC implementation.</p>
   </li>
   <li>
     <p>⚒ <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-2335">JAMES-2335</a> James should be a flexible server. We should be able to use custom configuration providers, not only XML files as of today. That is a move toward “clustering done the right way”.</p>
   </li>
 </ul>

 <p>Of course, we are very open if you want to propose other ideas to us! Come and discuss this on <a href="https://gitter.im/apache/james-project">our gitter channel</a> or on the issues directly.</p>

 <p>Thank you by advance for your involvement and hope to see you around!</p>
