There's still time for organisations to submit applications for entry (until April 23 20:00 UTC). The application details for projects are available here[2], but the gist is as follows: - Get at least two "administrators" to oversee your projects - Create a list of writing projects and then assign at least two mentors for each of them. There's a couple of project ideas that Google suggest here[3], but I'm sure you have your own. - When you have finalised your list, publish them online. - Submit your application and sign up your admins, mentors before the 23rd. After this, technical writers apply and get in contact with orgs. There's too much info here for me to summarise, so I'll just link the timeline[4]. Note that the actual writing period is Sep 2-Nov 22. Since I'm singing up I thought I'd let you'd know, seems like something you might be interested in.
