-* What kind of projects could/would you mentor?
-I am interested in Sugar activities that are relevant to daily life in the classroom. Things that help the teacher and learner enhance their approaches to problem-solving.
-* How much time could you devote to mentoring? Can you make the especially solid commitment of being a double-mentor?
-As much as necessary to make sure we have a successful, useful outcome.
-* What relevant coding experience do you have (very briefly, two sentences at most)?
-maintainer of [[Activities/Turtle Art]]
-* What relevant mentoring (or related) experience do you have?
-years mentoring student projects at MIT

+*What relevant coding experience do you have (very briefly, two sentences at most)?
+:: I am the author of [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Rainbow rainbow]. I also am intimately familiar with Sugar's architecture, design, and code base.
+*What relevant mentoring (or related) experience do you have?
+:: I analyze, critique, and improve software professionally, often working with less experienced coders. I also managed the release of a small operating system ([http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/8.2.0 OLPC's 8.2.0 OS release]) in which I helped to fold the work of many contributors, both new and old, into a successful and coherent software development experience.
+*Anything else you think is relevant.
+:: My entrée into professional software development, which I love, was an internship not unlike the ones you're applying for here.
