Do other potential mentors have suitable projects and interest in mentoring?
As last year, I'm interested in mentoring for GIL during this edition. I don't have any specific projects on the plate, but there is still plenty to do as continuation of Miral Shah's project adding image processing algorithms: https://github.com/boostorg/gil/wiki/GSoC-2019 We have a list of wishes and ideas for GIL https://github.com/boostorg/gil/wiki/Boost.GIL-3-Ideas that may serve interested students as an inspiration (e.g. color management is an interesting area). I personally prefer when a student approaches with a project proposal she/he is very keen to develop or at least approaches with an idea and works out project details with prospect mentor(s). I consider coming up with an idea or project as an initial homework filtering genuine interest in solving a particular problem rather than piggybacking Boost & GSoC to improve CV.
