[gsoc] Mentor Payments

[Dan Allen]

I have no objections to the idea, in fact I wholeheartedly support it, but
I'm curious if we'll get to vote on the organization.

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.
