-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Lei: Thank you for being a great student this summer, I have sent in a passing grade for your mid-term evaluation. I have gone through all of your work to date and think you are in a good position to finish out this summer with a strong project. I apologize very much to you for not making the evaluation deadline, and for causing you worry and stress around it. There is no excuse for missing the deadline, especially when I've required you to make deadlines throughout this year. My only explanation is that I was mistaken about my workload and ability to be a good mentor to you for your project. I had many activities and deadlines (work, personal) that were interacting around the same time last week, and when it came down to it I failed to complete your evaluation in time. Although I failed to make the deadline for the evaluation to be sent in to the Google team, they understand this was my failure and not yours (the student's.) They have generously allowed me to send in your evaluation past the deadline. In contrast to your great work in the CentOS community this summer, I have not been a very good mentor -- certainly not up to any standard I consider acceptable. I should have called in help sooner so that your experience and work wouldn't suffer. For help I have asked Shaun McCance to join me as a co-mentor for this project for the remainder of the summer, and to work more closely with you, myself, and the other student's related project. Shaun has a tremendous amount of experience as a GSoC mentor around documentation, as well as other relevant experiences, and he has helped us with this project all along the way. By having Shaun more actively involved, our goal is to help you get your project to a good completion and give you a better experience.
