Request to add myself to the list of Julia mentors

[acroy]

I would be happy to mentor a GSoC project for JuliaQuantum - an organization for developing Julia libraries related to quantum science. See also JuliaQuantum/JuliaQuantum.github.io#20 for discussions of the project proposal.

@acroy let me know if you have questions.

[acroy]

@r-gaia-cs Thanks! I certainly will come back to you once we are ready to submit the proposal.

@r-gaia-cs When and how do we have to score the projects? Should we assign ourselves as mentor to a project on melange?

@acroy You already can score the projects.

Should we assign ourselves as mentor to a project on melange?

Yes.

You already can score the projects.

Am I right that we are supposed to only score the project for which we are nominated as a mentor? In your email to julia-users you linked to a document, where it says the score ranges from 0-3 stars, right?

@acroy All of the Julia mentors should score the Julia related proposals. You all can decide then how many you'd like to accept. Once you have an idea of the # you want to accept, let Raniere know that number and he'll tally up all the requests from the sub-orgs and submit a final request to Google. We have no idea how many slots they'll provide. Typically only 2 slot per new mentoring org have been awarded, but we may luck out and get more because we are an umbrella org.

BTW, you don't have to score anything. You can simply discuss who you'd like to accept for Julia. The Melange system provides a scoring system to help if you want to use it. For groups with many applications this is often useful but for small # of apps it may be overkill.

@moorepants Thanks for the explanation! I guess we should start the discussions then :-)
