Our aim is to help students be part of the FOSS developers community. We are '''looking for some mentors''' to help the students. Even though two of us are taking the course, to make the course successful we need participation from the whole FOSS community. We will be using [http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/wiki/FellowshipMentors this list] to assign mentors. So please add your name and areas you can guide students on that list. The idea is to have one mentor per student through out the course and help him or her to be part of a project community.

We will maintain a common note for all the sessions (everyone is encouraged to maintain their own notes as well). It would serve as a platform for community to engage us and build great course material for everyone else to follow.
