[GSoC-general] GSoC: apply for Kivy plyer

[Terri Oda]

Hi weihuang,

Hopefully the Kivy folk have found you here and gotten you an answer, 
but if they haven't you should try asking your question on the 
kivy-specific mailing list here:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/kivy-users

I'm also cc'ing Akshay at kivy, their sub-org coordinator, who may be 
able to direct you further.

  Terri
