Google Season of Docs for 2024

Dear Plone Foundation Board Members,

I recently heard about Google Season of Docs, a program that is similar to Google Summer of Code, but exclusively for documentation. From its home page:

Google Season of Docs provides support for open source projects to improve their documentation and gives professional technical writers an opportunity to gain experience in open source. Together we raise awareness of open source, of docs, and of technical writing.

Plone was accepted in 2019, but the project was not completed.

I would like to take the lead to apply for Google Season of Docs for 2024 on behalf of Plone. It's too late to do anything for this year, and we have a lot of content that needs to be migrated first, so next year would be better.

Would the Plone Foundation support this effort?

Is there anything else I should know?

Please let me know. Thank you!
