Hey guys,

the newly founded Apache community development project [1] is offering a mentoring programme [2] to people new to the ASF that want to do their first contribution to an Apache project. It is especially targeted at students [3] participating in the Google Summer of Code but open for others as well. I see this as a great chance to introduce young people to our projects even before their career starts and at the same time get something back from them in the form of contributions. Just imagine a bunch of student excited about Tapestry, spreading the word :). This requires a mentor on participating projects, though.

Having said that, I'd volunteer to mentor 1 or 2 mentees but only if you think that it will be worth it and that we'll be able to identify tasks a mentee can work on.

What do you think?

Cheers,

Uli
