Round 3 for 2021 is open. Here are the deadlines - Deadline for Proposal Submission: September 3, 2021 - Projects will be Notified: October 15, 2021
As before we are only allowed to submit one proposal for SymPy, so if you are interested in applying please let me know. As with the other rounds, this is generally geared toward people who are already contributors to SymPy. Unlike programs like GSoC, it is not mentored.
