cwgordon7 commentedHi agentrickard,
Please make an account on the google application site and apply to be a mentor for Drupal, so I can add this task. It needs a mentor listed on the google system. You can apply here: http://socghop.appspot.com/gci/mentor/request/google/gci2010/drupal. Thanks!

Could you also estimate the time, in hours, that it would take a student to complete this task once it is claimed? This estimate is required to input the task into the google system.
Thanks!
