Like I said, there are no general rules. If I am a mentor and I know you
personally, I can sponsor you immediately. If I a mentor who hasn't heard
about you, I will want to make sure that you are active within the community
before sponsoring you. It is just a personal comfort level. What we are
trying to encourage is people who sign up for a role, take it seriously and
be dedicated enough. This comes from the past experience, where a few
people sign up for a title and an email alias and don't understand the
project to be a good ambassador. Of course, we will continue to calibrate
the process as we go forward.
