That sounds good to me if we don't actually get all the mentor requests
assigned, but in practice - given the number of requests and the number
of existing members of the proventesters group - I'm kinda hoping we can
have all the mentor requests accepted by the end of today or certainly
tomorrow. Several of the applicants are people who clearly know what
they're doing already (one of mine is Rahul...), so they really
shouldn't be particularly onerous to approve.

I've already taken the first three (chronologically) requests. I hope
others can quickly take the others :) Feel free to use or adapt the text
I put in my reply to the tickets I accepted.
