Yeah, I'll have to do a lot of traveling this summer and in between I'll
probably be more busy than I'd like catching back up with things.  So I
can't commit to anything that requires me to be around most of the time,
but would be happy to help as "backup" mentor when I'm available.

In addition to what Nils/Ivanovic wrote, the Easy Coding wiki page [1] is
always very popular during the student application period.  I'll clean up
the AI section and add new tasks if I can come up with any.  I'll also go
over the other sections and check if any of those tasks seem done, but I'm
no expert on those.  So it would be good if others could have a look over
the page as well.

Cheers,
