[Sugar-devel] Notice to GCI mentors

[Chris Leonard]

Dear GCI mentors for Sugar Labs,

First, thank you for volunteering your time and effort to help the GCI
participants to help Sugar Labs and our users.

The GCI website will open to student sign-up shortly, so we can expect
to begin seeing requests from students to take on tasks.

The purpose of GCI is to help foster the next generation of FOSS
contributors, so I think we should maintain high standards in judging
the completeness and acceptance of their submissions, although not
unreasonably so.

Please note that the timeliness of replies for action requests (assign
tasks, mark as complete, etc.) are very important.  A student is
prevented from moving on to request another task while they have a
task open, so it is critical that students be given the courtesy of
rapid reviews of their work.

Warmest Regards,

cjl
