Thank you.

Yes, we should discuss this here, but we don’t have all that much time
left before the intern application process begins.  During that period
interns get to pick a project they are interested in and start getting
to know the community.  At the end of the application period we need to
pick one of the applicants.

So even though the internships won’t start before May, we really need to
submit our proposals this week or early next week.
