All approved apprentices will be asked to keep track of the pertinent details about their project in a central wiki page on this group. The following is a template for them to use to do this.

Will this template suffice?
I borrowed this template from the Google Summer of Code group -

Will this sort of template suffice for the Drupal Kata? If not, how should we revise?

We'll do that on the Kata site
Unless we can magically create what we need on g.d.o., we'll probably have to build this into the Kata site. I do think a wiki might get a bit messy - especially when we're using it to track something like a website build where there will be many modules/features and people involved. As it's a key 'Kata' objective to interface with the official sites, we'll keep looking for ways to streamline/improve the process as we go.
Related to this, I'm having a hard time trying to visualize how to best to utilize the 'Kata' project space - there's an issue for that, so possibly a good place to figure that out.
