Summer of Code/Mentors

Our most important need right now is for quality mentors. If you (or someone you know) would make a good mentor, please nominate yourself (or them), both here on the ML and on the wiki (if you can't handle a little redundant paperwork, you're probably not a good candidate :). Include relevant information such as:

• Name/contact
• Timezone
• What kind of projects could/would you mentor?
• How much time could you devote to mentoring? Can you make the especially solid commitment of being a double-mentor?
• What relevant coding experience do you have (very briefly, two sentences at most)?
• What relevant mentoring (or related) experience do you have?
• Anything else you think is relevant.
