GSoC Mentors: sorry for the delay. The new melange UI is freaking me out and I can’t find anything. It went from about 50 navigation links to 5, and I’ll be spending the morning trying to figure out where the heck things moved. In the meantime, let’s set up some open IRC chats like last year where students can ask questions etc. Can all mentors post with some days/times this week that work for them (or if you’re mostly open, post any days/times when you are not available)? Thanks.

Mostly open! 9-11AM EST Tuesday and Thursday are pretty much the only “out” times for me.

Yeah, I can’t seem to find anything on there either. It took me clicking through every link in the nav to figure out that signing up as a mentor started with clicking “See all participating organizations” in the bottom of a box in the middle of the page.
Anyway, I’m Pacific time. Wednesday evenings are out for me, as are all school mornings between about 7am and 8:30am (14:00 – 15:30 UTC).

I’m Pacific time, and mostly open in the evenings, though I can block out time in the afternoon or very early mornings if needed. Will be available but somewhat unresponsive between 14:00 – 23:00 UTC as I’m in the office and otherwise distracted.

Thursday’s wide open, except for 4pm-6pm eastern (20-22 utc). Otherwise, any time after 6pm eastern (22 utc) all this week should work.

I’m Central time, so I’m usually unavailable from 10pm-8am Central (03-13 UTC). Other than that, Tuesday morning from 10am-1pm Central (15-18 UTC) is the only block of time when I will be unavailable.

I’m on eastern time. After 7pm works best. I’m sporadicly available during the day as well.
