Hi Brian,

Is it possible to help mentoring from a remote country, so i don't have 
to go to google, if it is possible to do this from my university or my 
work place in the Netherlands I would be happy to mentor some of the 
projects.

I do have large list of things that i want to discus because I currently 
disagree with some of the implementation strategy for the projects.

I will write down a list of projects and strategy's so we can all look 
at them and discus them.

Kind regards,

Jelle
