In theory maybe but in practice it will get less and less likely that potential contributors will see your idea and discuss about it since the discussions start today so probably not. 

I guess you can still do a draft pr or issue and it might become interesting for next year or other mentor programs like Summer of Nix or outreachy 
Thanks for the clarification, Janik.

Well then; hey, everyone!

I'm Priyanshu. I'm excited to start contributing to the Nix project. I've already gotten my feet wet with nixpkgs and the prospect of contributing to the CLI xD

I'm currently pursuing a major in Computer Science at NIT Kurukshetra. Here's my GitHub :) https://github.com/GetPsyched

Oh, wait, I misread your response. I was referring to contributors suggesting their own ideas, not mentors; since that's quoted from the contributor's guide.

That explains stuff, I reed it as you wanting to mentor because you are already a active Nix/OS contributor for half a year and part of the rfc steering committee. And at least gsoc is intended for people that are relatively new to opensource and (in our case) nixos
