That is a great offer Amr, can we use it as a trial to see what folks 
need in a mentor, how it works best etc.?  Maybe the final candidates 
wont want this at all but I would be surprised...
cheers steph

Somehow, Tapani made the job sound sexy. :) My only reason for choosing Karel over Samuel is that my impression of his is that he is a relatively new member, and seems eager. I figured it wouldn?t be a bad idea to encourage him to stay engaged.
