Hi everyone,

Starting today we are accepting applications from organizations who have
participated in a previous Google Summer of Code (you!) to get involved
with our contest for 13-18 year olds, Google Code-in [0].

If you haven*t read up about Google Code-in, you can check out our
announcement [1] to this list from a couple weeks ago or read our blog
post [2] about the contest. 

If your org has decided it would like to apply to participate in the
contest, you can fill out the application [3] on Melange now. The deadline
for applications is 29 October at 23:00 UTC.
Also, if you want to look over the rules for the contest before applying
to participate they can be found on the organization application [3] at
the bottom. They will also be posted on the Google Code-in website [0] in
the next couple days in other languages.
We hope your org will consider participating.
