As it says at the end of the message the next meeting is scheduled for Monday April 7th at 22:00 UTC, this is the same as I originally stated. Beyond that I'm open to suggestions for the scheduling of future meetings.

A report on today (Saturday's) mentor meeting:
Attendance was a little low but we did have two new participants: Adrian Kuhn and Giovanni Corriga. Thanks Adrian and Giovanni! Also in attendance were Klaus Witzel, Matthew Fulmer, Janko Mivsek, and Ken Causey.
Giovanni explained the voting procedure, to summarize:
Once the student application deadline ends a drop-down should appear on the application with -4, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +4 choices. The specific votes should not be visible to students. Voting is split up into two periods, the first will be from April 7th (8th maybe) until the 15th. The second will start on the 15th and end on the 17th or 18th and is meant to take into consideration students who have been accepted into other projects, the number of slots Google has assigned us, etc.
Giovanni pointed out that any mentors interested in attend the Mentors Summit hosted by Google in the fall should start saving for expenses. Google will pay for a small number of mentors but not for all, and we have to pay initially to be reimbursed by Google later.
Adrian Kuhn said he would be meeting with his student on Monday to improve the SpyVM application.
Matthew Fulmer provided a link to his application from last year's GSOC which was accepted but which he was ultimately forced to cancel.

Giovanni pointed out that we should include at least one student who is a newcomer to Squeak, of course only if the application is also good.
We didn't bother to go over all of the applications again.
The next meeting is on Monday during the last two hours of the application period 22:00 to 0:00 on Monday April 7th. If you haven't made it to either of the other meetings this is the last chance before student applications have to be finished and voting starts.
I would appreciate any comments on scheduling future meetings. I scheduled 3 of them rather close together right now to try to accomodate everyone before the deadline. I suspect we should have at least a meeting during the first voting period and almost certainly one during the second. Any thoughts you have on that would be appreciated.
