Hello folks, Great news, Outreachy has extended the mentor project submission deadline.
The new deadline is: Mentors must submit projects by Sept. 29, 2020 at 4pm UTC Please note that the new project submission deadline is a hard deadline. The contribution period opens October 1, and we cannot add new projects after that date. Thanks a million! Looking forward to hearing from you.
