* Talk to the mentor. Contact details are on this page; if all you have is a nickname, get on [[IRC|IRC]] and try and contact them.
* Read the [httphttps://wwwflossmanuals.booki.ccnet/gsocstudentguideGSoCStudentGuide/ GSoC Student Guide] and follow its advice.
* Read [http://blog.gerv.net/2006/05/how_not_to_apply_for_summer_of/ How Not To Apply For Summer Of Code] and avoid doing the things listed there.
* Read our examples of good applications: [[SummerOfCode/SampleApplications/1|1]], [[SummerOfCode/SampleApplications/2|2]], [[SummerOfCode/SampleApplications/3|3]].
Note that if a project suggests it would be helpful to know XUL (Mozilla's user interface description language), you may be able to get away with learning on the job. Don't be put off from applying if the project otherwise looks right for you.
Questions about individual projects are best addressed to the potential mentor of that project. These should be listed in the table below. If you want to contact a mentor and contact details are not here, ask people in the #introduction channel on IRC: irc://irc.mozilla.org/#introduction. If you have questions of any other sort, send mail to [mailto:florian@queze.net,clokep@gmail.com Florian and Patrick]. We will try and respond as soon as possible and get your questions directed to the right person. Please allow at least 48 hours for a reply.
