This sound like politics and won't impress people around here. I live in Malaysia, and understand this kind of reasoning, but your regular guy/gal in Europe/USA won't. Regarding mentor; You need to be on the Incubator PMC to be a mentor. ASF Members can be that by choice, and the Incubator PMC occassionally invites dedicated Incubator contributors who are not ASF Members, but it it rare. I have added myself as a Mentor to assist Aaron in this "east meets west" project, as I think there will be cultural bridging needed.
