2009-03-05Minor rewording is GSoC student application formantrik
2009-03-05Replaced introduction section of GSoC student application formantrik
Aside from rewording in general, we now explicitely demand that students contact us during the application period -- instead of just suggesting that they will really need to do so in order to properly answer the questions, and hoping that they take the hint... It is important that they contact us, and there is really no reason not to demand it explicitely. Also, introducing explicit patch requirement. (Instead of just asking for some "exercises" through the feedback form after they submit their applications...) Generally, we try to be much more clear about our expectations up front. This should make our work much easier when giving feedback for the applications. Also it should result in better applications -- and more happy students...
2009-03-05Drop note about size limit of GSoC student application formantrik
The FAQ for this year no longer explicitely mentions a limit -- although it still talks about external links... Let's assume there is no limit anymore.
