Hi,

It's my pleasure to announce the Gentoo Mentors Project[0].

The Mentors project acts as a matchmaking service between prospective
developers and volunteer mentors. It provides general support for
candidates who are working on the recruitment quizzes and preparing
for interviews. It also offers guidance to those who are interested in
applying to become a Gentoo developer but not exactly sure where to begi
n.

There is an appeal for developers who are interested in becoming
mentors as well. Mentoring is of both social and technical in nature.
Even though the technical topics are well documented, the social
aspect of mentoring is usually kept between mentor and mentoree, and
not shared between mentors. We hope to attract senior developers with
strong mentoring experience who are willing to pass down their
knowledge, assist and advise prospective mentors.

We seek to maintain healthy collaborations with other community facing
project such as Recruiters and Proxy-Maintainers. We do not intend to
be a replacement for developer help resources and channels but rather
an addition that focuses more on the recruitment and quiz side of things
.

Our project is open to developers who are interested in volunteering
as mentors and lead by example!
