Hi,

the review process started yesterday.

We're still missing backup mentors for the following projects:
* Postproc optimizations
* MPEG-4 ALS encoder
* Hardware Acceleration (hwaccel) API v2
* Hardware Accelerated Video Encoding with VA-API
* AAC Improvements

See page:
http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=FFmpeg_Summer_of_Code_2013

In case you want to volunteer as backup-mentor for one of these projects,
or propose a new project, *do it now or as soon as possible*.

I'll add my name to the vacant positions later today in case no one
shows up.

I suppose we can change backup-mentors later, but it's better if we
assign the positions before the review is done.
