Hi all, I'd like to remind potential students that the application period will end Apr 9, see timeline [1]. The earlier you submit your proposal, the more chances you have to refine it according to mentors/community feedback, hence the more chances to be successful. See also [2].
Usually, last minute submissions result into failure, *it is time to submit your proposals already*. We privilege quality over quantity, so please, spend time to write a good proposal, *submit it in draft mode* and flesh it with the comments, clarifications and requests from mentors before the deadline. For your convenience, this year you can download the template from github [3]. It is not mandatory to use github to fill the proposal, but *using the template is mandatory*. For more tips on how to write a proposal, see [4], and have a look at [5] too. Good luck everyone!
