Thanks for addressing these concerns and signposting potential solutions, both short and long term. I have signed up as a mentor, but we still need a champion. Unfortunately I don't really have the time right now to do the heavy lifting in the early stages of the project and thus don't feel comfortable stepping in as champion right now. In around 6 weeks I will have some more time and can dedicate that to mentoring.
