[split] Mentoring Read Me Thread

[milo]

I have no problem with making a fool of myself and being seen to be poetically incompetant, but i would hate to think that i was leading someone astray with false or wrong information.

For the most part critique and poetry are relative to the observers and therefore short of some grievous error on the part of the mentor, I can hardly foresee a reason for anyone to step in.

Also, with all due respect to the idea and the willingness to dedicate time to helping others, this idea needs to be simplified and packaged for n00bs only.

I find this statement interesting. The site I 'stole' the idea from demands a demonstration of skill and proficiency before you are allowed into it - in writing, critiquing and revising. There is also a pretty big queue of candidate that would like to participate. Is there a reason you think only the opposite would work?
