I'd like to mentor some huggle related tasks + I can also help with or mentor any C/C++/C#/Java/PHP or Python based tasks

I'd also love to mentor again. I'll try inventing some Multimedia -related tasks, in addition to MediaWiki core ones.

o/ I can help with MediaWiki and Pywikibot tasks.

@Petrb, @matmarex, @Legoktm: Thanks! This is already pretty motivating, seriously. :)

Please check https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2015#Mentors.27_corner - in short: Add Google-Code-In-2015 to any Phabricator tasks that you would mentor in Google Code-In and add a short comment saying so (if Wikimedia gets accepted for GCI - T115408)!
I have already added you to the list of mentors under "Contacting Wikimedia mentors" on that wikipage.

Wanted to update here:

I have added myself to the mentors table on the GCI_2015 page. I'd specifically like to mentor tasks under the Spelling Dictionary extension, which I created during OPW Round#9. Apart from this, I am also willing to mentor students regarding any generic task under Mediawiki.

We're starting the last week of GCI 2015 today so I'm closing this as resolved - we won't do further mentor recruiting anymore at this stage.

Thanks a lot to everybody who mentors and who helped finding mentors!
