Most of the mid-term evaluations have been filled, and it looks like for
many projects, the mentor would love to see more interaction. I don't
know what's the best way to achieve this since there are many reasons
(some mentors could do with more free time, eg), but I guess a good
first step for students who don't do this right now is to send weekly
reports about their work.

Also, a lot of people in the community are asking about what you are
doing, so it would really be great if you could send an email or write a
blog entry about the mid-term status of your project. We'll then be able
to list all those in a mail to foundation-list. And you'll get more
feedback :-)

Thanks,

Vincent
