This is so exciting! Looking forward to supporting our co-admins this year.

Since I’ve started getting questions from OpenMRS Organizations about OpenMRS GSOC 2024, I started the new Wiki page here: Summer of Code 2024 - Resources - OpenMRS Wiki. I found our list of ideas from 2023 that didn’t make it into last year, and added a few of them that are still relevant :slight_smile:
