Thanks Alex and Paolo for your [co]mentoring availability!
Please remember that mentoring is often quite demanding in terms of
time and energies, especially if you didn't work with the student
before. Feel free to ask previous years' mentors about their
experience, and of course here on the list.
However, it can happen that great student proposals that have no
developer with experience on the topic nor is available to mentor. It
is a particular edge case where we are inclined to accept the proposal,
and bind it to a "placeholder" mentor. But this can only be done if the
student will be supported by the developers community as a whole.
Please consider this situation as unusual. Each participating OSGeo
project should first match good proposals to available and expert
mentors. Only if some very good proposal is missing a mentor and the
devs community is available to step in, then make it clear to the
student and to the OSGeo admins, and we will sort it out.
See http://tinyurl.com/mentor-selection for the statement we wrote on
the GSoC Application.
All the best,
Anne
