I would be mentoring the exitmap project.  I'm fine with spending one to
two hours a week, but preferably with discussions in the #tor-dev IRC
channel.  I'm not a big fan of voice calls, in particular if it involves
proprietary technology.

Many of our past students sent their progress reports to the tor-dev
mailing list.  I like that because it gives your work exposure, and many
people are able to give feedback.  Weekly or bi-weekly reports sound
reasonable to me.
