I think it still may be helpful for explaining in further detail things
like #leftoverbits (though I see you put some of that in your project
description).

Thanks. I approved it, though a few of the descriptions are a little
funny. For instance, the text says "we use an issue tracker", which then
links to public-inbox. I assume this is because you filled in a field
for "issue tracker" and then the system generated the text. I don't know
if there's a way go into more detail there.

Yes, I think the point is make sure the mentors are invested in the
individual projects. I imagine a kind of "oh, one of us will probably
mentor it" attitude has led to problems in other projects in the past.
