As more GSoC proposals are coming in, students are reminded to check their coding timeline against the official GSoC timeline [1]:

Evaluation periods will be:

*(1) June 11 - 15, 2018
*(2) July 9 - 13, 2018
*(3) August 6 - 14, 2018

Milestones considering these evaluations periods should be set by students in their proposals; additionally, well defined deliverables should be declared for these evaluation periods in order that mentors are able to evaluate coding progress.

citing [1]:

"Students work on their Google Summer of Code projects:

while time.now() < deadline:
  code() and debug() and document()"

keep this as a mantra in mind while writing your proposals!

good look!

Kind regards
Helmut (on behalf of the OSGeo GsoC admins)
