Great report! I didn't know that there were so many students that selected Boost as mentoring org... A couple of comments:
Mandate (bi)weekly reports
This is a very good idea, not only help the student focus on the status of the project, but also help the comunity see where the project is going.
Conduct student-mentor exclusively through public channels
This would also be great. While our mentors have been very helpful, more comments on our problems would have been useful. I would mandate that all *technical* communications should be public.
Maintain code, docs and tests in parallel
I'm guilty of not doing this, so yes, mentors should *require* their students to have docs and test up to date. That's all for now, thanks again to all those involved, expecially our mentors. Giovanni P. Deretta
