Here is the apache mentoring guide - http://community.apache.org/guide-to-being-a-mentor.html ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: Ulrich Stärk <[email protected]> To: [email protected]; [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2012 1:28 AM Subject: GSoC 2012 mentor signup [PMCs, please see the PMC section below!] Potential GSoC 2012 mentors, It is time now to sign up to be a mentor for your GSoC 2012 project(s) if you haven't already done so. To do so, follow these 4 steps: 1. sign up at Google Melange [1] and note your link_id. 2. Add your link_id to [2] if it is not already in there. If you were using a different email address for registration with Google Melange, make sure that your alternate email address is listed at [3]. You can manage email aliases through [4]. 3. Request to be a mentor for the ASF within Google Melange. 4. Send an email to [email protected], cc'ing the PMC(s) for which you want to mentor projects, stating that you want to be a mentor for PMC(s) x,y and z asking for silent ackknowledgement from the PMC. IMPORTANT: We won't process mentor requests in melange if you have not copied your PMC in your mentor request to [email protected]. ------------------ PMCs, Potential mentors will be asking you to ACK their mentor requests. If you feel that the person asking to be a mentor is not fit to mentor projects for your PMC for whatever reasons, it is your duty to NACK their request by replying to their email and copying [email protected]. If you don't have any objections either stay silent or better yet, ACK their request. Also, please forward this email to would-be mentors not on your PMC.
