It is more thought of as a fallback as requested by Google. 
As I suggested these themes I'd of course be available for mentoring 
+ onlist discussions.

Uups a organisation ... and KDE not available ...
I found the following text on google.com:
Mentor organizations are individuals, groups, organizations and/or 
businesses engaged in the development and distribution of free and/or open 
source software.

If you'd agree we are a group. Me of course too as this was my intention.
Thats better for explaining them we are able to fullfil theyre 
requirements in help, availablity and expertise regarding the students 
mentoring, including the paper work.

I'd like to create a page on the ColourWiki and invite you to add more 
ideas to it. There are as well more ideas from Oyranos, but have to look 
what makes sense to such a project.
Or would you resist, and like to take it to Krita as it is better known?

kind regards
