Hi, I can certainly see some ideas we have for Gelly making nice GSoC projects, but I'm not sure I will have enough time to devote as a mentor.
@Fabian and others who were mentors last year: can you share a bit about your experience and specifically about your workload during GSoC? What were your responsibilities and when was your help most needed? Preparation/description of the project, during development, during the end? The thing is that currently and for the next ~2 months I'm quite overloaded, but this will hopefully change after I finish my internship and some paper deadlines pass :) Thanks! -V.
