Hi there! I would mentor you, but you have to convince me that you're 
really interested in the project/software. (-: Also, debexpo needs to grow 
an effective community around it; you will have to be willing to work on 
that with me, too!

One thing I will say is that if you successfully complete a summer of 
working on debexpo, I will happily advocate you to be a Debian Developer.

There is no current roadmap I think but we can work to change that. It 
would be an exciting task.
