How much time mentoring takes, from the FAQ:

http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2010/faqs#mentor_time

# How much time is required to participate as a mentor in Google Summer 
of Code?

While the answer to this question will vary widely depending on the 
number of students a mentor works with, the difficulty of the proposals, 
and the skill level of the students, most mentors have let us know that 
they underestimated the amount of time they would need to invest in 
GSoC. Five hours per student per week is a reasonable estimate.
