No need to say much more than you did though, as what you've been saying is exactly right :) The microproject is how applicants demonstrate their ability to adapt to the workflow in the Git project. So this is how we mentors ultimately decide which applicant is likely to be the best fit for the Git project. You are of course free to do additional changes after you have completed the microproject to get more familiar with how things work. After all, this is an open source project, so people are free to contribute at any point in time. But this is not a requirement. Patrick
