You have already figured out what to do. So just go for it, discuss with the mentors and find bugs assigned to sci _AT_ gentoo _DOT_ org on the bugzilla and help resolve them. If you are interested in data science and physics, look into the related packages both in gentoo repository and science overlay, and figure out what's missing. Feel free to ask on this list along your preparation. Then you can come back with a feasible plan for the summer. Yours, Benda
