I'm not sure how including such information is compatible with the overall image of a GSoC organisation blog post. The point of the post, as I see it, is to put forward the contributions of the students, the new members of the community, while keeping the huge help of mentors in mind, but not necessarily on paper. If we state that certain community members helped Aleksandar a lot, it may look like he was the only student to require much support. On the other hand, making a similar statement in the presentation of every student will feel redundant. My final argument is that one does non see such mentions in the 2011 blog post [0]. I do not insist on this position, however, and if there is going to be another person supporting your opinion, I will add the necessary phrases to the text.
