I'd personally like to see us vote on an organization that focuses in some way to open source on the JVM, since that's a core belief we all (or most of us) share. Some ideas are Apache or Eclipse. I'm open to other ideas as well.

Hi Mentors,
each mentor is entitled to $500 for the work as part of GSOC12.
Typically organizations just donate the overall mentor payment amount to
a non-profit organization via Google. This avoids the overhead of
billing Google for the payments and deal with the tax issues. Since
mentors reside in different countries, it is not worthwhile to dispatch
payments to mentors.
We are going to choose a non-profit organization that supports Open
Source Software. I will announce who it will be in due course of time.
If you have objections and want to have that payment for yourself, then
please email me. :)
Regards,
Anil
