The columns are to be filled in as follows:

• The Student column is for your name.
• The Completed Hello column lets us all know whether or not you completed the mandatory Hello World project. Email your proof to Gedare, Joel, and Chris Johns.
• The IRC Handle column is your handle on IRC. RTEMS folks hang out in #rtems on freenode.net.
• The Proposal Title should be self-explanatory.
• The Google Docs URL is your proposal in Google Docs that can be reviewed and commented on by mentors. The ​proposal template should be copied and used as a baseline. This can be shared with mentors for review. Mentors can insert comments for you. You can use this as your Draft Proposal in the ​GSoC site.
• The Final Submitted should be set to Yes when you have submitted your Final PDF proposal on the official ​GSoC site. If you do not submit the final proposal via the Google site, you cannot be considered!
