Thanks.  I'd love to see a libgit2 project this summer.

If we do have such a thing, and if I'm still wearing the maintainer hat for libgit2, I think it would be improper for me to be the mentor for the student. Just as Junio abstains from mentoring any students in GSoC, to prevent potential bias during patch review, I probably should abstain in the case of libgit2. Or at least move the project to a dual-maintainer approach like we use with JGit, so the other maintainer is the one doing the actual review and patch acceptance.
