DFFML has been a suborg under the Python Software Organization during Google's Summer of Code since 2019. We meet every week for a group hands on sessions where mentors provide feedback to students on their work, we work through problems as a group, and plan future work. Outside of meetings mentoring involves reviewing student work, having 1:1's with students, and working to unblock their progress by fixing issues out of student's scope which we're not identified in the proposal phase.
