Well, you've got about 48 hours to get your proposal in. It's not a
lot of time, especially because you need to post it *here* before
putting into Melange (the GSoC system), but if you get started this
moment you may still have a shot.

If you'd like a serious chance at getting accepted, please:

* Read our student guidlines, at
https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/SummerOfCode2013#Students.

* Write a proposal that follows those guidelines. If you want to see
examples of some good proposals, look at the threads here started by
Michal Petrucha
(https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/e0-rOIkrXaQ/w5aiW_R6aFYJ)
and Christopher Medrela
(https://groups.google.com/d/msg/django-developers/e0-rOIkrXaQ/w5aiW_R6aFYJ);
both are well-written, solid proposals that show what we expect to see
from students.

* Show that you understand the problem space. For your particular
project, there's quite a history here. Forms were the subject of a
previous Summer of Code project which failed. You need to demonstrate
that you understand why the past project failed and show that you have
a plan to succeed this time. There's also quite a few third-party
forms libraries that address the concerns you have; you should show
that you are aware of these projects or at least plan to spend some of
your project time researching.

* Submit your proposal here. Once you have a proposal, you need to
post it here for comment before submitting it to Melange.
Realistically, to stand a chance of being accepted you need to have
your proposal posted here in the next 24 hours. If you get your
proposal posted on this list within 24 hours I'll commit to giving you
feedback in time to revise your proposal before the submission
deadline.

* Get your revised proposal in before the deadline.

Good luck,

Jacob
