After the first filtering of FOSS Outreach Program for Women applications, we have eight candidates moving onto the next level in the selection process:

Right now there are six candidates in this table, and two more are coming after having applied to opw.gnome.org, following correctly the program process.

Community scrutiny and feedback is welcome. Please be kind and informative in your replies. All of us were newbies one day (and still today in most fields).

A total of fifteen candidates applied. We have declined seven because they had incomplete proposals, and we have invited them to start preparing their proposals for the next round.
