[Tux4kids-tuxtype-dev] Tux4Kids mentors needed for Google Code-In

[David Bruce]

Hello everyone,

Just putting out an "all points bulletin" for anyone who might be able
to chip in for Google Code-In (formerly GHOP), a sort of "GSoC Jr."
for students 13-18.  I've had very little time for Tux4Kids in the
last couple of weeks, but we managed to get signed up and get a
profile created.  However, we have no other mentors so far (not that I
have done much of anything to spread the word).  Tonight I am trying
to get our tasks entered into Melange ahead of the start of the
program tomorrow.  If anyone wants to volunteer, please go to
http://www.google-melange.com/gci/org/apply_mentor/google/gci2010 and
sign up.

As it stands now, I'm thinking we are going to have to back out on
participating, unless at least a few folks step forward.  It won't
look good, but it would be worse to have a bunch of students get
started on tasks that I won't be able to keep up with.

David
