Hi Phil,
thanks for advertising Debian Mentors.

One thing I'm missing on mentors.d.n is that I it does not advertise
existing teams. It happened from time to time that there was some
sponsoring request of Debian Science, Debian Med or Debian Python Team
related packages (surely others I did not notices). Asking on the
relevant lists very easily helps getting the package in question
sponsored. I have a personal sponsoring policy that I only sponsor from
a Git repository in a team I'm working in. This has the advantage I can
easily help by pushing some commit with extensive comment to teach the
sponsee in some direct way. Making a sponsee aware how to work together
with a team inside Debian is IMHO very important.
Thus I would welcome if there could be some explicit hint to mentees
to relevant teams.
Kind regards
Andreas.
PS: Please do not understand my remark related to the packages below
just a general remark fitting the subject.
