Buddhike, again thanks for all the hard work. The submission deadline
seems reasonable.
"Create your single application page" and "Draft your
proposal"
looks redundant and can be merged together.
Thanks.
Yes, these sections do appear a little confusing to me as well, perhaps
merging them into one with the following steps would be a little more
clear (open for revisions, can put this on the wiki if you want)
1) login to the
fedoraproject.org/wiki using your Fedora Account Credentials
2) Navigate to the following URL, replacing <UserName> with your
fedora username
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=GSOC_2012/Student_Application...
3) Populate the form on this page with the contents of the following,
filling in the necessary details:
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=GSOC_2012/Student_Application...
(make sure to _omit_ the <pre> tags)
4) save the page and then click 'watch this page' at the top
5) Navigate to the following URL, replacing <UserName> with your fedora
username and <ProposalName> with the name of your proposal
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=GSOC_2012/Student_Application...
6) Populate the form on this page with the contents of the following,
filling in the necessary details
https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=GSOC_2012/Student_Application...
(make sure to _omit_ the <pre> tags)
7) Save the page and then click 'watch this page' at the top
8) Repeat steps 5-7 for additional proposals you would like to submit
If you need help visit

sample proposal at
