Thanks to everyone who sent in a SAoC application or volunteered as a mentor. If you haven't yet received an acknowledgement of your application, you should hear from me in the next 12 hours. If you haven't heard from me by Saturday, contact me at aldacron@gmail.com to check in and make sure I've received your application.

We'll try to make the selection process go as quickly as possible. We want to match mentors with participants soon enough that they can get their milestones planned out before September 1.

Some of the proposed projects have corresponding mentor volunteers, some do not. If any of the selected applicants are in need of a mentor, I'll put out a call here for volunteers.

Hopefully I'll have the pleasure of announcing the three selected participants sooner rather than later.
