We can still withdraw if we want before students start applying, or we can put a disclaimer on the ideas page. I tweaked the application text to update it for this year, but nothing too major. The result is at: http://git.github.io/SoC-2015-Org-Application.html That content was cut-and-pasted into Google's application interface. Matthieu, as backup admin you should have access to tweak that if there are typos, etc (and I will probably not be available to apply fixes from now until the deadline, so please do so if you see anything). We can continue to improve the ideas page as time goes on. At some point Google will look at as part of the application, but probably not right at the deadline. :) -Peff
