Could you please clarify - or point to a page that does so - about what it means to become a Mentor? Anyone have any experience being a mentor? I would be happy to help - but I would rather learn a bit more about the mentor side of GSoC > Also, any thoughts on what we might want someone to do?

I think just implementing one of the algorithms might help Mahout but it might be a bit hard to attract students to do that without some real task at hand. What about putting up tasks that solve problems e.g. from this years KDD cup or the web spam challenge? Than the benefit for participants would be two fold - first they would help Mahout and second they could compete with others in the field.
