GSoC 2021 Student Applications Open and Deadline

[Joel Sherrill]

https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to

About 15 hours until the deadline per that countdown.

Tick.. tick..

Please fill out the application and submit your proposal as is. Hopefully
the mentors will be providing more feedback over the next few hours. You
can replace the PDF of the proposal until the deadline. But don't wait to
get something in.
