That'd be perfect. Thanks! > (Evan, we'll probably want to have the Org payment [if we're accepted] go to > our IMF account so I'll touch base with you if we get to that point.) I'm fine with the org payments going to our successful mentors. That said, payment to the IMF account and subsequent disbursement makes the most sense if we need to specify a single payment destination (I've forgotten how that part went in the past). > The question now becomes, how many slots do we want to go for?

We can give a slot back if needed. I see 3 people - Zac, Frank, and Andreas - who have volunteered to accept the considerable responsibilities (excellently explicated by Peter) of mentoring, so I think we should ask for 3 slots. Of course, we may accept less proposals than that, depending on the quality of submissions. -Evan
