All - if you want to be a mentor:

      * pick someone to contact from
        http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Contributors
        * anyone is worth asking, they might appreciate the help

      * Cc: the initial contact to f-dsco-l, with a blurb such as, "I
        Cc:'d the docs project committee so we can keep track of who
        we each contact."

	* Alternately, send a separate email, if you prefer.

      * Ask to keep mentoring discussions on f-docs-l *or* have
        summaries occassionaly sent.  For example, the mentee could
        send an email, "I discussed this idea with Karsten on IRC, and
        he thinks it will work great, so this is what I'm doing ..."
