Welcome to another round of Google Summer of Code and Outreachy!

# We want you!

We're looking for mentors! If you're interested in mentoring, [enter your 
information here][1].

[1]: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2020/Projects

You can also contact the Debian Outreach team with any questions at 
outreach@d.o, on IRC, or on #debian-soc-mentors.

## Projects

All mentors are attached to a project, which must be part of an already 
existing team within Debian. Projects should be something that can be 
accomplished over approximately three months of full time development work. 
GSoC projects must be technical in nature, while Outreachy projects allow for 
community, social, organizational, translation, and other types of 
contributions.

Every project must have at least two mentors per student. One mentor (for each 
student) must either be a Debian Project member OR a well known, consistent 
contributor to Debian. We ask that all projects be submitted to  both GSoC and, 
if selected, Outreachy. Outreachy has greater expectations for mentors than 
GSoC does. However, we believe it's important to offer students in both 
programs the same opportunities. You can, however, submit a non-coding project 
to Outreachy, and that will not be included in the GSoC options.

## Responsibilities of Mentors

[Google][2] and [Outreachy][3] provide comprehensive mentor guides.

As a mentor you will be helping a student learn! You should be regularly 
available to meet with and advise your intern, responding within a reasonable 
amount of time. You will also be expected to:

    * help applicants apply and become acclimated to the Debian Project norms
    * provide feedback about the application process to the Admins and assist 
in selecting interns
    * write **brief** weekly reports, using a template, to be submitted to 
Debian Outreach

# What are you talking about?
