Airflow Mentors for Summer 2025 MLH Fellowship

Hi Airflow team,

I'm Alex Gornet, a Partner Success Manager at Major League Hacking. Here at
MLH we run an Open Source Fellowship program
<https://fellowship.mlh.io/partners> that functions like an internship for
student developers to contribute to open source projects. *Fellows from our
program have successfully contributed to Airflow since Fall 2024. *

This year Royal Bank of Canada is sponsoring some seats in the program, and
they'd like their Fellows to contribute to Airflow as a way to give back to
the community. *With the recent release of Airflow 3.0, these Fellows would
be great candidates for tackling the backlog of bugs / issues following the
transition. *

*Right now, we're looking for maintainers / core contributors to provide
technical mentorship to the students*, so we'd love your help to identify 2
maintainers / core contributors (or more!) who could take lead here and
support us bringing on some great new contributors.

   - *The program runs from May 19th to August 8th*, and we'd ask for ~2
   hours of your time each week.

*If this is something you'd be interested in helping out with, you can
simply reply to this email or reach out to me directly at
alexg@majorleaguehacking.com <al...@majorleaguehacking.com>* — since we're
not too far out from program launch, the sooner you can let us know the
better!

If you have any questions about the program or want to chat more about it,
let me know and I'm happy to find time. You can also reach out to Dennis
Ferruzzi who has mentored the last couple of cohorts to hear more about his
mentoring experience.

Best,
Alex

Hey Everyone,

I also worked with Alex and his team during the fall of 2023 and it was an
amazing experience.

Mentoring some young college folks into a project foreign to them is very
rewarding both for them as well as
for the mentor. As a mentor, i learnt a lot during this process due to the
beginner doubts and issues the mentees
ran into which we often ignore as solving such issues seems trivial to us.
This led to a lot of improvements
in breeze as well during that time.

Similar to Dennis, I won't be able to commit the time required (which isn't
a lot btw) and I also want to give this
chance to others as well :)

Thanks & Regards,
Amogh Desai

Hey.  As Alex mentioned, I've worked with them for a couple of cohorts.  The only reason I'm not doing the next one is because I have a lot going on in Real Life this summer and won't be able to commit the time.  If anyone is interested but wants to chat about what it's like, feel free to hit me up on the Slack channel.
