application for organizations is open!

We’re delighted to announce Season of Docs
<http://developers.google.com/season-of-docs> 2021!

In 2021 the Season of Docs program will continue to support better
documentation in open source and provide opportunities for skilled
technical writers to gain open source experience. In addition, building on
what we’ve learned from the successful 2019 and 2021 projects, we’re
expanding our focus to include learning about effective metrics for
evaluating open source documentation.
What are the 2021 program changes?

Season of Docs 2021 will allow open source organizations to apply for a
grant, based on their documentation needs. If selected, open source
organizations will use their grant to hire a technical writer directly to
complete their documentation project. Organizations will have up to six
months to complete their documentation project. Keep reading for more
information about the organization application or visit the Season of Docs
site <http://developers.google.com/season-of-docs>.

Technical writers interested in working with accepted open source
organizations will be able to share their contact information via the Season
of Docs GitHub repository <https://github.com/google/season-of-docs>, or
submit proposals directly to the organizations, and will not need to submit
a formal application through Season of Docs.

Participating organizations will help broaden our understanding of
effective documentation practices and metrics in open source by submitting
a final case study upon completion of the program. The project case study
will outline the problem the documentation project was intended to solve,
what metrics were used to judge the effectiveness of the documentation, and
what the organization learned for the future. All the project case studies
will be published on the Season of Docs site at the end of the program.
Organization Applications

Organization applications are now open! The deadline to apply is March 26,
2021 at 18:00 UTC.

To apply, first read the guidelines for creating an organization application
<https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/docs/organization-application-hints>
on the Season of Docs website.

Take a look at the examples of project ideas
<https://developers.google.com/season-of-docs/docs/project-ideas>, then
create a project proposal based on your open source project’s actual
documentation needs. Your goal is to attract technical writers to your
organization, making them feel comfortable about approaching the
organization and excited about what they can achieve.

Organizations can submit their applications here: http://goo.gle/3qVxArQ
