Leaving my snarky remark aside, I can now analyze the disconnect in question. I misinterpreted you as meaning that *any* mentor should be able to do it, not that projects generally have at least one mentor who can. In my defense, I read the tone of that web page as suggesting that the people with enough access (whatever their visibility) are not terribly numerous. So I thought a message to general was the most efficient way to put a lit-up bat in the sky to attract someone.
