Hi all,
It's exciting to see all the activity around Google Summer of Code
(GSoC). Now that the submission window is open, I encourage everyone who
is considering applying to GSoC to do so as soon as possible. Please
remember that the submission period ends April 8 at 1000 UTC.
Also, there is no harm in uploading a "good enough" draft now and
updating periodically before the submission period ends. Mentors can
see, from their dashboard, all the submissions. It is convenient for us
to view from the dashboard, and it ensures that you will not miss the
deadline. I myself, for example, plan to review proposals in a batch
over the weekend, and I'll be starting by looking at the proposal drafts
that have been submitted.
Lastly, if you have yet to make a PR, please know that it's important to
do so. We weigh these quite a bit, since they show us how you will
likely perform over the summer. Likewise, if you haven't done so
already, you should join the conversation in our Matrix chat and join a
live meeting: https://matrix.to/#/#sugar:matrix.org (bi-weekly meeting
info is in the room description). Google is recommending that we get to
know all the contributors, not just by their applications but by
interactions within the community.

Again, we're excited by all the activity, and we're looking forward to
reviewing your proposals!
Best,
Devin
