Dear students,

3 days to the Friday deadline at 19 UTC! Those who you didn't already, please write your biography! Without it you don't have any chance, sorry, and in Thursday you'll end up on "Not serious" list.

Mentors are starting to invite you to write proposals. Look at your profiles and if you'll be invited then start writing a proposal. More about that later.

To repeat the steps:

1. on our website http://gsoc2012.esug.org:

1. Register there and provide as much contact info for mentors to reach as possible;
   
2. Write as best biography as you can. Good biography page is the best way to be accepted!
3. Choose up to three projects you are interested in. Mark a project you are most interested by clicking the button 'Very interested';
4. Mentors will soon invite up to two students per project to write a proposal;
5. Invited students write a proposal how to make a chosen project.

2. on Google GSoC site:

1. Register there as a student as well, and immediately, you can edit the registration until deadline anyway,
2. After invitation and writing a proposal copy the proposal on the Google website as well.

Why such a dual procedure? On our website we can pair your interest with available projects easier that on Google site, this is the main reason.

So again, hurry up and best luck!
