I'd be interested in doing what I can to help, but I'm not in a position

several years of Perl and JS experience under my belt, and am quite used
to finding where people are stuck and nudging them along. The bad news
is that I know next to nothing about git internals or about XS (which
I'd expect to feature heavily in a new Git.pm). I'm also settling in to
a new job, so can't give strong guarantees about availability - for
example, I'm pretty sure IRC access from work isn't going to happen, and
have no idea what the olympics will do to my commute in the summer.
If Jakub needs some kind of teaching assistant to help with code review
and firming questions up then I'd be happy to help. But if it needs to
be someone who can infuse a strong vision for the end result then you're
better off looking elsewhere.
Well, this sounds great, at least to me. Jakub will probably know better
how and if you're fit as a mentor. From what I can tell, specially if
there is more than one mentor for a project, you wouldn't have to spend
more than 5 hours a week on it. Probably even less. And I think the Perl
+ JS experience is good enough for it. Maybe you'd be more fit for the
JavaScript framework in gitweb project?
