- Look previous issues/PRs to findout people that can carry out reviews.
- Let members who were in the group for few years know of the situation, They will know how to handle it.

- This means Google has selected us to participte in GSoC.
- Now you need to follow the timelime mentioned in summer of code to propose ideas,...etc.
- First of all if you haven't contributed already start contributing to any project.
- Priority is always given to those who have already contributed.
- Discuss ideas!! like to build a new thing Y in Project X.. don't keep it in your head. Tell us.
- It's better to use a google doc when you are discussing ideas as it's easier to discuss/review.
- We can discus this later try to contribute first.
- This depends on which mentors wants to participate.
- This depends on Google selecting ScoreLab as an org.
- This depends on already created issues/kanban projects in repositories.
- Your selected project may or may not be in GSoC. (Contribution to any project is still valuable)
- Depends on if Google decide to allow SCoRe Lab to participate.
- Projects are based on mentor availablility.
- Those who contribute already are prioratized.
- As mentioned in above questions. Create a google doc and then share with mentors.

- NO. We don't need to know your personal information. Just focus on the tasks.
