ASF GSoC mentor eligibility

Hello,

I'm a community member and active contributor of an Apache project and I'd
like to volunteer to be a GSoC mentor this year. However, I'm not currently
an ASF committer or member.

I'd like to clarify if GSoC mentoring is strictly restricted to ASF
committers or can non-committers also volunteer to be mentors or co-mentors?

ps: I'm sending to this list as I didn't find a clear answer on
https://community.apache.org/guide-to-being-a-mentor.html.

Thanks,

Paulo

Mentoring an ASF project, formally, requires you to have an ASF commit bit on the project you are mentoring for. However, the act of mentoring is a community effort. Engage with your project community offering your assistance and asking for someone to work with you as the named mentor. If you can find such a person then you are good to go.
