Application process to apply for GSoD

I will apply to GSoD this year. For applying, I have to submit a PR in the GSoD repository. I want to work with Layer5 if Layer5 is also participating this year. I fave a few questions regarding the application process and it would be really useful if I could get some guidance regarding it.

  • Apart from updating my info in the GSoD repository is there anything else that I need to fill up for applying to Layer5
  • DoesLayer5 have any specifications or format regarding updating my info in the GSoD repository that I need to keep in mind
