I think there are better ways to learn about people's contributions than asking them to provide a resume/justification for their desire to be a Mentor. > I'm also trying, more pointedly, to head off the 'AWOL mentor' problem > by asking mentors to think about, and state, the commitment they are > making. But your approach is pre-judging them. I think it is better to be optimistic -- that people *will* continue as proper Mentors. "Trust, but verify". *IF* somebody goes AWOL, then deal with it at that time, rather than simply assuming that up front. Find a way to detect an AWOL mentor rather than requesting these uncomfortable justifications.
