Google Code-In is an open source development contest for 13-17 year old students. Similar to Google's Summer of Code, but targeted at younger programmers.

If you know any High School students who are interested in programming or curious to get involved in open-source projects, you might want to point them to the announcement on Google's Open Source blog.

The participating projects haven't been announced yet, but some of the tasks will include: coding, documenting, researching, training, translating and user interface design.

Timeline:
November 9: Announce participating open-source projects
November 21: Google Code-In begins
January 16: All tasks must be complete
