Happy New Year!

= We are excited to announce the full GS= oC 2022 timeline= . With Organization applications opening in a few weeks, February 7 - 21, w= e wanted to remind everyone of the important changes to think about when co= nsidering your application.

Be sure t= o have both ~175 hr projects an= d ~350 hour projects that you would like GSoC contributors to work on inclu= ded in your Ideas List.
Reach out to= your community members to ask if they would like to be mentors for the pro= gram. This year with the option of extending projects for up to 22 weeks we= hope some of your community members that weren=E2=80=99t able to participa= te before will be able to make the more flexible schedule work for them.

Having a thorough and well thought out list of= Project Idea= s is the most important part of your application.

You can check out the 2022 GSoC Org Application Short Answer Ques= tions if you=E2=80=99d like= to start preparing your responses in advance so you can copy over your ans= wers once the org applications open February 7 at g.co/gsoc - there are a couple of different quest= ions this year.

Please encourage other open source orgs to apply -- if you know of other= open source projects that may be interested in applying to GSoC as a first= time org please remind them to check out the available resources below and= have them put your org (or you) down as a reference when they apply.
