That is correct, you can't use that ui.

Unfortunately that is not so. Registration is needed every year. You should
have received an invitation from the GNU org admins when you provided them
with you mentor information. That invitation should ensure that you account
gets registered and activated. If you did not receive your invitation, then
you should contact the GNU org admins on the gnu-soc mailing list, as only
they can invite you. If needed I can dig up the earlier communication, so
that you know what information they need.

Thanks, that is so nice.

Hi Gabor,

When I try to create an account using [Get Started], there are only the
choices "organization" and "student"--both of which I don't want.

Also, I'm pretty sure I am on the GSoC Mentors mailing list so I should
still have an account from last year, right?

(I'd like to mentor the PXE thing)

To GSoC mentors:

I have received the following communication from the GNU coordinators:

mentors
To: 



Hi people!

At this point students have sent proposals that can be reviewed in the
GSOC page [1].  By now you should have a good idea of how many proposals
you can/want to mentor.

So, we are asking you mentors to do the following this week, before
Saturday 18 April:

1) For each proposal you want to accept, please make sure there is at
   least one mentor in the "Want to mentor list".  Having a backup
   mentor is highly desirable.

2) Please send to this list the number of "essential slots" and "desired
   slots" for your GNU program.  As always we will be using these
   numbers to determine how many slots we will ask Google for, and to
   decide how to distribute the number of slots we get allocated.

Also note that we are still in time to register more mentors.
Thanks!

Please make our internal deadline April 16th, 1600 UTC, so that I have time
to collect the responses, and to send out a draft to the ml, so anyone
missing can chime in.

Thanks

Best regards,
g_bor
