     3The interactions between the mentors and the mentees forms the core of the project.
     4
     5The mentors and mentees will have four quarterly face-to-face sessions lasting 1 and a half days each. In addition, mentees are expected to spend 20 - 30 hours per month on projects developed during the course of the project. And mentors are expected to devote 15 - 20 hours per month providing supporting and feedback to the mentees via email, online chat, and telephone.
     6
     7For the pilot project, we will recruit four mentees who will be mentored by two established techies. In addition, we will recruit additional trainers for the four face-to-face sessions.
     8
     9The face-to-face meetings will last one and half days and will be scheduled during the work-week. We will house travellers via solidarity housing. All meals will be provided as will the cost of transportation.
