I'd prefer not co-mentoring this one. If this is the only one you'd be
ok to co-mentor I could reconsider though.

Following discussions about mailmap, name changes, deadnames, etc
during the Inclusion Summit yesterday and the day before, I am
interested in co-mentoring such a project along what has been
discussed.

Would you be ok to elaborate about the above projects? I am not very
much excited about any of them, but I would be ok to co-mentor as long
as my co-mentor would come up with a proper project description.

Thanks,
Christian.
