Hello, I would be happy to mentor for SoC! I think it's a great program. I can also promise that I'll have a lot more time to work on Guile stuff over the summer than I do now, which should be perfect for SoC. :-)
My only questions are about logistics. Do I have to do any paperwork or something like that to mentor? Where can I see the proposals and give feedback? And how many spots does Guile have? Also, if we have three proposals for CPAN, then certainly two people should do something else, but how do we decide which two people? Paul and Diego both posted a list of proposals to the list before settling on their final one, so I imagine we could ask them to choose a different one from their list.
