Dear PMCs,

I'm happy to announce that the ASF has made it onto the list of 177 accepted 
organizations for
Google Summer of Code 2013! [1,2]

It is now time for the mentors to sign up, so please pass this email on to 
your community and podlings.

Mentor signup requires two steps: mentor signup in Melange and PMC 
acknowledgement.

If you want to mentor a project in this year's SoC you will have to

1. Be an Apache committer.
2. Register with Melange and set up a profile [3].
3. Add your username (formerly known as link_id) to [4]. This is NOT your 
email address but your
Melange username. You can find it at the top of any page once you are logged 
in.
4. Request an acknowledgement from the PMC for which you want to mentor 
projects. Use the below
template and do not forget to copy code-awards@apache.org.
5. Once a PMC member acknowledges the request to mentor, and only then, go to 
[2] and click the
"Start a connection" button.

PMCs, read carefully please.

We request that each mentor is acknowledged by a PMC member. This is to ensure 
the mentor is in good
standing with the community. When you receive a request for acknowledgement, 
please ACK it and cc
code-awards@apache.org

Cheers,

Uli
