Raul, read again what I wrote in one of my last messages:

"To the new comers: welcome!
Last year we had many people joining only to mentor GCI students. It was 
nice to have some helping hands but these new mentors needed training as 
well and that added even more burden to our already burdened contributors.
*In order to avoid adding even more burden to the stable contributors I 
advise to get involved in OpenWISP, once you understand how OpenWISP works 
and you show that you are able to contribute it will be natural for you to 
become mentor.*
*The people of Google Open Source Program Office explicitly advised me to 
avoid accepting mentors who don't have experience and knowledge of the 
project.*"

For getting involved I mean be active on chat and contribute to OpenWISP in 
the ways that are explained in these pages:

   - http://openwisp.io/docs/general/help-us.html
   - http://openwisp.io/docs/developer/contributing.html
   
If you are not getting involved in those ways there's no point in being 
mentor for OpenWISP, because you would need training as well and we don't 
have time to train mentors while we are also train students. Our resources 
are limited.

This does not apply for those ones who want to mentor tasks for a specific 
sub-proejct they already know and we act as a kind of umbrella org, which 
happened last year for some tasks related to projects and  dependencies we 
use (django-rest-framework-gis, netjson, the pyroma website 
<https://roma.python.it/>).
