(5) Time commitment. This depends on the abilities of the student, and also on the time zone difference (there is less you can do if the student is eight hours away). Early on in the project, one hour per day or even more is common, so make sure you have enough time to mentor a student if you are the primary mentor of a project.
Reading all this makes me reconsider my offer to be a mentor (for horizontal scroll bars)... What are the start and stop dates for GSoC? I will take some vacations during this period...
