Thank you for your interest in co-mentoring! It's very much appreciated!

I don't think you are late. It seems that February 25 at 4pm UTC is the deadline for project submission.

Earlier in this thread Dscho (Johannes Schindelin) said he would be ok to mentor someone for Outreachy, so I think, if he is still interested, he would be the best person to guide you on the steps required to get involved, and perhaps he could co-mentor with you.

I am planning to mentor a GSoC student this Summer, not an Outreachy intern, and I think it would simplify things for me if I am not involved in both programs. But let's see what Dscho says.

Best, Christian.
