Just as a quick reminder, deadline is on Wednesday. I believe all teams will benefit from this project, since anyone needing a hand will be able to register a task in the system. Also, we can get a new whole generation of contributors, and even maybe find some new leaders in the project. I'd love to see this come to life, and if anyone from any team wants to be a mentor or org admin if we get accepted, please let us know here! <div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, Nov 9, 2015, 13:30 Nicholas Skaggs <<a href="mailto:nicholas.skaggs@canonical.com" target="_blank">nicholas.skaggs@canonical.com</a>> wrote: </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On 11/04/2015 02:23 PM, Benjamin Kerensa wrote: > The last attempt was by myself and Luke Faraone it wasn't so much a > lack of mentors but our application process was difficult to navigate > because we needed sign off from Canonical.

I like the idea, and I'm happy to help as needed. I agree with Liz though. Many hands make light work, and the success of initiatives like this depend on having a few volunteers to help run it. Anyone else willing to put there name in to help make it happen?
