You might want to go ahead and submit an application based on the plan |
| 25 |
you should have or will soon develop. Hopefully you've been in contact |
| 26 |
with our BSD/Alt team via their mailing list and IRC channel; if not, |
| 27 |
consider doing that first. Please follow the below guides when you do |
| 28 |
apply to improve your chances of success: |
