Please note that for this season at least we're aiming to specific projects for which we already found at least one Debian-related person interested in mentorship. So we would appreciate if you join one of those projects (listed in https://wiki.debian.org/SeasonOfDocs2019 ). Is there any project there for which you feel particularly motivated? (One or 2 more projects idea may appear during today or tomorrow, but it would depend mostly on the availability of other Debianers to mentor, so it's not sure yet). > Being young, I do not know all and since this is a new program there are > a lot of open questions but I'm open to learning.

Please have a look at the timeline and note that the program starts on September and will last until end of November, so most of the mentors' work will be done those months. Thanks again, and don't hesitate to keep on involved in Debian until GSoD starts!
