I'd feel odd if I'd do it. The student. We (as a mentoring organization) will suggest some project ideas and assign mentors. On a following phase, students will go through the projects and submit the actual project application. Now, we need: 1. More mentors. Mentoring is quite important, who wishes to be one has to have the time for it 2. Organization Administrator. The person who will do the administrative stuff. I could do this role, but then I won't mentor 3. Project ideas and wiki info
