But given my personal interests, I'd be delighted to help along with the gitfs. Since I've ignored most of the GSOC traffic so far, could someone, please point me to the right URLs so that I can see what's required of mentors and whether I'd be a good match for that. Thanks, Roman. P.S. besides, there's always a benefit of communicating in Russian or getting together for a few beers in SPB ;-)
