[soc-dev] The Eclipse Foundation has been accepted as a mentoring organization

If you want to sign up to be a mentor, please send me an email me (or emo@xxxxxxxxxxx) so that I can invite you (limitation of the system).

You will only be accepted as a mentor if you are a committer on an open source project hosted by the Eclipse Foundation, or if the existing mentors otherwise vouch for you.

By registering as a mentor, you will be granted the ability to review and comment; and help us rate student project proposals. You will further get the opportunity to volunteer to actually mentor students. Signing up as a mentor at this point is really only about potentially mentoring: you are not commiting to any mentoring assignment. The only way that you can be assigned to actually mentor a project is if you volunteer to help a specific student with a specific project.

Students: the application process opens on March 20 [1]. If you're thinking of applying, now is the right time to start exploring our project ideas page [2] or otherwise start hunting down ideas. Note that project proposals that align with an Eclipse open source project's plan (i.e. look at the open issues) have the greatest chance of being accepted.

Thanks,

Wayne
