Just so everyone knows: We are now in the Google Summer of Code student application period, which ends March 21st at 19:00 UTC. See the GSoC 2014 home page:
https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2014 When they're ready, students should apply using the mechanism described in the FAQ: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2014/help_page For example, see the questions "How does a student apply?" and "What should a student proposal look like?". The FAQ also has answers to other common questions, such as whether two students' individual applications to work on the same idea could be accepted (yes), or whether a student can submit multiple different proposals (also yes). I see many students here already interacting with the project's developers to figure out their proposals -- that is great, and is exactly how this is supposed to work. Please continue doing that :-). There's no need to rush an application; the deadline is still eleven days away. And by the way, Arches developers: it is still okay to come up with new ideas. The Ideas List does not need to be static. If recent discussions lead you to think of some new potential GSoC projects, that's fine. Post them to the mailing list and hone them. In fact, it's not even essential that they ever get on the Ideas List web page, though of course we'd try to put them up there for reference soon. In any case, a student can still apply to work on such an idea even before it is on the Ideas List page -- their application can just refer to the mailing list thread where the idea is being discussed.
