go ahead and whip up an email to google? Do we want to run this through
the foundation? ISTM we would, though I don't know the full extent of
what ramifications that would have.
No, the Foundation wasn't formed

Marc,
If you wanted to submit PostgreSQL to Google for this, I'd be willing to
work with any potentials. Should someone choose to work on PostgreSQL
projects, the money can go to the group.
If anyone sees a problem with submitting under the PostgreSQL Global
Development Group, I can do it
We have a whole TODO list of potential items for people to work on, and we
have several member of this list that work for universities in some capacity,
so istm we ought to give it a shot. I would think this is something that the
foundation would be good to be involved in as well, as it would
I think we definitely should submit PostgreSQL to Google.

My participation would be limited to the actual number of newcomers. I
feel comfortable helping 2 or 3 people; any more than that would impact
my clients and consulting time. Although, it would never hurt to have
additional mentors :).

Are there any restrictions on 'mentor groups'? For instance, could we
create a 'mentors' mailing list, closed subscriptions, that contained
those willing to actively mentor, so that those being mentor'd have
multiple ppl's knowledge's to feed upon?

One concern that was raised off of this list was the steep learning curve
to start with, to get to the point of beign able to do anything ...
Do we have any 'students' that are already up to speed, enough so that
they'd be able to accomplish something significant over a 2-3 month
period?
Not sure about the current 'students'. I need to take a look and see
what kind of somewhat easy stuff is on the TODO (I haven't seen it in
awhile).
I like your suggestion for the mailing list.

Well, I suppose now might be a good time to de-lurk. Hi, my name's

Funny how things come full circle... in previous threads someone mentioned a
few low hanging fruit items, we should start there, and maybe get one of the
more hard-core hackers to go through the TODO list and mark up some other
items.
My take on the mentor thing was that the students could
