Not sure if this fits better in announcements, but I will try
here for now.
I need email addresses for mentors so I can add you to the
organization (D Foundation). I can hunt most of you down, but
it would be easier if you got in touch with me:

Also, if you are not currently listed as a mentor, but are
interested I think it is still fine to add new names.
Also, we should put together a selection committee to review
the student proposals (once they are submitted). I will give
some thought on how to come up with this committee, but any
nominatios are welcome. Potential mentors should be involved
in evaluation, but I would like the final 'selection' done by a
group outside the mentors, since the mentors are to some extent
in a conflict of interest (they will presumably favor projects
targeted at their area of expertise).

I just had time to see the results today, congratulations on the
approval into GSOC! Very exciting time as a student who enjoys
programming in D. Although I may not be able to apply due to
work, it's awesome that a group of students will be able to work
full time on projects that directly benefit the D community.
Best of luck to mentors and students alike!
