I know early on in this thread about Outreachy projects some folks expressed interest in comentoring. Is anybody still interested in doing so?

For context, I've been in contact with 3 applicants who have either sent their first patch already or are getting ready to (and have needed some involved discussion or help) plus another few applicants who have inquired and may or may not send patches in the future. I've also received quite a few mails outside of my timezone working hours (I usually am awake/working 18:00GMT-02:00GMT), which I feel badly about not being able to respond to in a timely fashion. If anybody wants to comentor I would be so excited to have the help :)
