Hey Andre,

Glad to hear that! Thanks for letting us know about this great news.

I'm interested to mentor for Google Code-in this year. I just added my
name over :[Wikimedia
Mentors](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Google_Code-in_2016#Contacting_Wikimedia_mentors).
Please do invite me so that I can mentor Google Code-in this year.

I'll be adding "Google-Code-In-2016" tag very soon.

Looking forward to hear from you.

Regards
Amit Kumar Jaiswal
