Did we have an 'official' leader for GSOC this past year?
If not, could I ask someone (*cough* Kai *cough*) to nominate themselves?
We need to coordinate getting some information to the SFC so that we can collect the mentor stipend from Google.
Cheers,
Jeremy

Actually, Maarten was doing all the admin work for Wine this year.

I'm already traveling to the Mentor summit on a Samba slot.

Technically, everybody who signed up as a mentor with the Google web-app this year can go, no matter if you had a student to mentor or not. We get to send two mentors.
The mentor summit is a great opportunity to meet developers from a wide range of open source projects, it's probably one of the best cross-sections of open source know-how you can find in a weekend. I can only recommend going.
See http://gsoc-wiki.osuosl.org/index.php/Main_Page#Mentor_Summits for the notes from the last years.
Cheers, Kai

I can second that. Interesting open source developers from every place and every project. I've been to the summit last year. This year I didn't mentor, my time is limited and I just came back from the bay area, otherwise I'd have taken the opportunity to go to the mentor summit for sure :-)
