Any idea how much time per week this will cost? I still would like to do it at least once but I have no idea what the load would be.

  I think you mean you would like to be a mentorEvent Supporter Event Supporter (formerly Mentor) is someone who has already organised a WordCamp and has time to meet with their assigned mentee every 2 weeks, they talk over where they should be in their timeline, help them to identify their issues, and also identify solutions for their issues., not that you’d want to be the program administrator (project management). Mentoring takes anywhere from a couple hours a week to 10 or more, depending on how involved you are/the complexity of the student project you agree to mentor. Best way to gauge it would be to talk to some previous mentorsEvent Supporter Event Supporter (formerly Mentor) is someone who has already organised a WordCamp and has time to meet with their assigned mentee every 2 weeks, they talk over where they should be in their timeline, help them to identify their issues, and also identify solutions for their issues..

Count me as interested. I’m not a regular Make contributor, but I am a good project manager.

  On that matter, I have mentored several young students from my class in 2010 on Java-related projects, few of them were awarded by Google.
