FOSS Mentor Program and Xen.org

I have been looking over the Teaching Open Source organizations web site (http://teachingopensource.org) and think that Xen.org needs to take part in this initiative. Based on the number of projects within Xen.org that are listed for the Google Summer of Code (see http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XAPI_Developer_Guide?highlight=%28%28XAPI+project+suggestions%29%29) I believe that we can easily benefit from having more college student participation with our community. The Teach Open Source site allows organizations to list projects they are interested in mentoring (http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/FOSS_Mentor_Projects) and I see that OpenNebula (http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/Help_Wanted:_OpenNebula) is already participating in this program.
If you are interested in assisting as a mentor in this project, please let me know and I will begin creating a Xen.org FOSS Projects page with the specific project you can mentor.
