Very useful book for organization/mentors that try to participate in GSoC: http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCMentoring/


My Questions to GSoC:

1) can one person be administrator and mentor in same time in one organization?.
answer.

2) Can one person propose two organizations(project) to GSoC ?

answer.


Steps in registering
0) Creating mailing list and registering IRC channel, both are required at step 4 but you need MAIN mail-list and IRC, so all projects will share same, as in registration you do not have place to put mail-list for each project.
1) Ideas page should be complete
2) Projects pages are polished.
3) register as Organization Administrator https://google-melange.appspot.com/gsoc/profile/org_admin/google/gsoc2013
3.1) Ask to register back-up admin too, as his username will be required in step 4.
4) register as Organization http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/application/google/gsoc2013

registration keeps 2 weeks ... Links to edit at Google Melange site - administrator info, organization info.
