[Sugar-devel] [GSoC 2025] Contributors, please do not forget to submit your proposals for review | Submission period ends April 8 at 1000 UTC

[Devin Ulibarri]

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.

reviewing your proposals!

Best,

Devin
