Every mentor and organiser signs a public commitment. Read the agreements.

Roles

  1. Primary mentor The contributor's main contact for the whole programme: plans the work with them, reviews their pull requests personally and replies within 48 hours on weekdays.
  2. Backup mentor Knows the same project, joins reviews and steps in whenever the primary mentor is away, so the contributor always has support.
  3. Organisation administrators Ayushman Bhattacharya (lead) and Vivek Yadav manage Elixpo's application, deadlines and communication with Google, and handle any concern a contributor raises.
  4. Programme coordinator Anwesha Chakraborty answers programme questions sent to gsoc@elixpo.com and organises community sessions. She does not mentor or review code.

How mentors, administrators and the coordinator work with the contributor week by week, cover absences and complete evaluations is set out in How we run the programme.
