<pre wrap="">Frank,
I haven't been involved in a specific OS project before, but I do have a reasonable idea of how OS projects work.
I have been involved in the OS community for about eight years.
My coding experience is also rather rusty.
I'm also tight for time at times (like everyone else here ;-) ).
Most of my volunteer time is currently spent with OSGeo-AustNZ, FOSS4G-2009 and CCIP-2009.
If you are short of volunteers to mentor Rasdaman, I'm willing to take the time to learn what is required and act as Mentor. Perhaps someone could mentor me for a time?

<pre wrap="">Jody,
My position (after the initial bootstrapping process) has
been that mentors should be someone with experience of the
incubation process. That is, someone who has been a mentor
in the past, or who has been a mentee (ie. project
representative to the incubation committee) or who at least
has been following the incubation mailing list for a while so
they have some understanding of our process, and expectations.
Of course, the truth is that if someone with good experience
of how open source projects work is willing to learn about
our particular requirements and is willing to act as a mentor
I would no doubt consider them.
Best regards,
