Project ideas can be added until the student application deadline, only the earlier they get posted, the more potential student candidates will read them and consider them for their applications. In addition, project ideas get posted on the project's sites, not at Google. Also they can get posted at more than one place. So we should determine ASAP who could mentor this project and post the project on our idea lists.
