Re: [IAEP] IAEP Digest, Vol 131, Issue 2

[James Cameron]

Welcome.

We must have one or more coding mentors willing and able to assist students 
with coding questions.

Requirements for a coding mentor are a demonstrated coding ability in the form 
of contributions of code to Sugar Labs.

We also have some mentors who do not code willing to assist students in various 
other ways, such as gathering requirements, visual design, testing, and 
deployment; these are shown as an assisting mentor.

The only requirement for an assisting mentor is knowledge of the project.

If you can, drop your pull request on
https://github.com/sugarlabs/GSoC

If you can't do pull requests, let us know.

Please change your subscription to turn off digest mode, as a reply in
digest mode breaks threads.
