If a project has no developers who actively contribute to it, putting students on it with the hope that they will take care of it, is too optimistic.
I don't want to argue for or against concrete examples, but I do agree that it's not fair to the students to tease them witha project that might sound cool, but hasn't got mentors available. And if there aren't developers, how can there be mentors? -- Boudewijn Rempt | http://www.krita.org, http://www.valdyas.org
