Hi, Its exciting to see people enthusiastic about Vim participating in Google Summer of Code; see [1].
To take things ahead we will need an organization admin to apply here [2]. The role of an organization admin as stated on the summer of code faq [3]: An organization administrator oversees the overall progress of a mentoring organization and its students throughout the program. Organization administrators will have different responsibilities depending on the organization, but at the very least they will need to: 1. Submit the organization's program application to Google 2. Act as the main point of contact between Google and the organization 3. Respond to any inquiries from Google within 48 hours 4. Assign a back up mentor should a mentor be unable to work with a student 5. Ensure all program evaluations are completed on time on or before the deadlines For some projects, the organization administrator also acted as an arbiter when disputes arose between students and mentors, but each project should individually decide how such situations should be handled. So we need volunteers for admin; feel free to nominate others too. I would suggest Bram as he has acted as an admin for Vim the past Summer of Code. Bram?
