Here is a list of projects and mentors, grouped roughly by how well their
proposals were received.  students, please stay in touch with your mentor;
if you haven't been in touch by email to date, please do -- or post to this
list!  If you don't have a mentor yet but want one, try to develop your idea
and discuss it here; we will keep looking for a mentor for you.  (Bruno,
both Mako and Blake were interested in mentoring your project; you should
talk with both of them to see who would be the best fit).

Mentors -- if you need someone else to work with one of your students, for
any reason, let me know!    SJ
