Can all would-be mentors please register on Melange? The list of possible mentors lists Arnaud, probably a C&P from last year. Arnaud, are you up for mentoring again? Otherwise I'll remove you from the list.
Then we'd currently have Gaël Varoquaux (not sure if you have time?), Vlad Niculae, Olivier Grisel,Alexandre Gramfort, Michael Eickenberg and me. Any other volunteers?
