Old

Pending

  • Verify if the application rules have changed in any way since we last looked at them.

New

  • Anne!

For discussion

Possible additions to last year's

  • Title: (please include the name of the member project as part of the title, for example: "Gee Whiz Foobar 2001 for QGIS")

proposed additional question for the application:

  • Would your application contribute to your ongoing studies/degree? If so, how?
(logic: If they will use the software for their degree they will care more about functional and absolutely correct outcomes. Also if they have a local univ. supervisor it's like a built-in co-mentor)

Possible removals vs. last year's

too many "why are you interested in this?" questions? combine some? (or not)
