To be precise: new mentors should always consult with their team about
GCi participation and the specific tasks. Since students are
participating from all around the world, often more than one mentor
will be needed for some of the tasks, depending on circumstances. It
can get pretty crazy on weekends and holidays.

It is important that we provide tasks that teach the kids a bit,
contribute to the project, and leave everyone with a good feeling
about the KDE community and our software teams.

All the best,
