Subject: [Mentoring-coordinators] Next steps

I am curious as to how people think we should proceed with the mentoring
program.  Based on the informal feedback that I received in Vancouver,
it appears that we are doing the right thing.  The questions now are:

1. Do we make it more widely available (i.e., open it to more than just
newcomers and students)?

2. Do we start building tools to automate the process?

3. Do we need better training material than the FAQs?

4. Do we start asking mentors to support more than 1 mentee given the
low workload that the mentoring seems to be taking?

I would appreciate input from all the coordinators on these questions
and any other items you think are important to consider.

Thanks,
Brian
