			Your application must be achievable, well planned and realistic in time and effort. We are looking forward to it!

	We're pretty open to ideas~~, but since LimeSurvey 2 is a complete rebuild of a fully functioning version 1, naturally we're going to be more interested in proposals that build core functionality~~. If you have a great idea that's a little out of left-wing, feel free to propose it, but it'll probably need to be outstandingly brilliant to push aside core feature proposals.

	* Functionality		* Functionality

	Our current focus for LimeSurvey 2 is to achieve a ~~basic level of functionality as an online survey tool. Version 1~~.~~8 has~~ a large number of features, and LimeSurvey 2 ~~needs to match version 1 in order to~~ be ~~a logical upgrade path for 1.8 users~~.		Our current focus for LimeSurvey is to achieve a cleaner code base. We already have a large number of features so new features is not priority rather making the existinf features/GUI better.

			Students who propose ideas that will improve the current state of code and GUI of LimeSurvey 2 will be high on our list of priorities.

	* Originality or Clarity		* Originality or Clarity

	~~LimeSurvey 2 needs to be as feature rich as LimeSurvey 1, but it's the beginning of a new phase for LimeSurvey. Original~~ ideas will count during the selection process~~. Where an idea is not original, clarity will be an equivalent alternative~~. If an application shows a clear and definitive understanding of its purpose and place within LimeSurvey, we'll be interested.

	As part of your application make sure that you think carefully about milestones and deliverables. When we assess your application we'll be looking at these carefully to see if we think they are measurable and achievable. An application with clearly defined milestones that help us understand that path the student intends to take to finish the project will have an advantage over an application with unclear or uncertain milestones.

	Coding projects take time, and this is a 2 month window. Your project needs to be something that can be completed in 2 months. If we think your idea is not realistically achievable, we're not likely to take it on.		Coding projects take time, and this is a 2 month window.
