My suggestion is not that a small number of mentors is ok and that they should mentor many students each. Google obviously would not accept that. But it _might_ be ok for a GSoC project if a mentor is not spending the 10 hours per week (or whatever Google might have in mind) and that is reflected in the project proposal (because it potentially results in more work for the student). I think that this really depends on the concrete circumstances. Cheers, Andreas
