To add to Johnny's and Tomaz's comments: Yes, please!

Apart from answering Johnny's questions, we would need to know

* When is this going to happen? Do you have a calendar so we can build 
something that fits your needs?

* Would it be possible to do mentorships remotely (which is this usually 
works) or are you expecting on-site sessions too?

Thanks for thinking of KDE. We look forward to working with you.

Best regards

Paul
