Hi,
I think mentoring organizations don't need to "get students" before applying
for GSoC.
This will allow students who didn't know about the mentoring organization to
join and start knowing and contributing.
It will also be hard for students like me to contact potential organizations
and check
I can reach out to my company, we are a CA, to see if they'd sponsor a cert?
Sounds like folk aren't much interested in that though.

It's easiest if someone "donates" a personal certificate, which then
puts their name on the releases (as is done with TortoiseSVN and
TortoiseHG, for example). However, without a sponsor organisation it's
very hard to get hold of a "trustworthy" certificate (which a personal
one is generally not).
I'd vote for it not being worth it right now, unless someone wants to donate
the money, and even then it makes things more complex.

There is CAcert.org, who will issue a certificate which by fiddling IIRC can
be made into a code signing certificate. But while CAcert.org is a *

Older releases of IronPython were authenticode signed (by Microsoft),
but so far the community releases have not been. As best I can tell,
authenticode certificates are expensive (the cheapest are around
$100/year) - I've heard of deals for open source projects but can't
find anything by searching.
