No, the deadline was only for mentoring org applications (and as
mentoring org we, the LF, are accepted). 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.
