It's less a question of whether the community agrees -- the community is
usually glad when more people help improving Haiku. In my experience (mainly
from GSoC) mentoring is quite a bit of work and since all Haiku developers
work on Haiku in their spare time finding developers who are willing, able,
and have time to act as a mentor for a project will be the tricky part. It's
probably a good idea to start compiling a list of projects you'd be
interested in and see for which ones there'd be possible mentors.

PS: I think it has not be mentioned yet: IPv6 support would be a very welcome
feature and a large enough task. Don't know, if anyone would mentor it,
though.
