-'''Rules and requirements'''
-* KDE must have at least two organization administrators to manage our participation in Season of Docs.
-* We must have at least two mentors for each technical writing project we plan to accept. Mentors do not need to be technical writers by profession.
-* KDE can submit two project ideas in our application for Season of Docs. We will select the ideas from the list of proposals below.
-* Our administrators and mentors should register in the Season of Docs system. Registration opens on April 2, 2019 at 20:00 UTC.
-* The deadline for KDE to apply as an organization is April 23, 2019.
-* Individuals are not allowed to participate in Season of Docs as both mentors and technical writers. In other words, you can't be a mentor for a KDE project and apply as a technical writer to contribute to some other project.
-* Individuals with previous experience in contributing to KDE can apply as technical writers as part of Season of Docs, but they must indicate their previous relationship with the project in their application.
-*KDE is not obligated to use the materials produced by technical writers as part of Season of Docs, regardless of whether the projects are successfully completed or not.
