Question about Google Summer 2020

[Takumi Kataoka]

Thank you, Beckman

I have another question now.

I checked GSoC ideas list webpage: https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCodeIdeas
and I found "?" on mentor column of "Dual-stack traceroute(1) command" project.

Who is going to be mentor of this project ?

Sincerely,
Takumi Kataoka
