I know in the past that Ruby (Central?) has applied as a Google Summer of
Code mentoring organization and been rejected (leading to Ruby Summer of
Code).
Is there any interest in applying again? I know Python does this, and is
able to obtain a number of GSoC slots that they can invest in various
projects which benefit the Python ecosystem. This eliminates the need for
these projects to apply as mentoring organizations themselves (in which
case they would probably be rejected).
Is there any interest in applying for a Ruby mentoring organization this
year?
I would be interested in such mentorship, but it would depend on the time.
If you could give me more information about the date, I could you give a
confident answer.

The deadline for a mentoring organization to apply is February 14 at 19:00
UTC. Note this is different from being a mentor: this would be registering
an organization for Ruby as a whole. That seems like something that would
most likely need to be done via an organization like RubyCentral.

Btw, do you think it'd be possible to have a Ruby mentoring organization
simultaneously with SciRuby and JRuby (possibly others)? It'd be great,
there are various small projects that could receive some care.
