I'm a bit skeptical of that approach.

Proper peer mentoring takes a lot of time, so I expect there will be a 
limited number of "I'll spend significant time helping you if you help 
us" offers. I don't envision potential contributors to browse dozens of 
project-specific "on-boarding doc" to find them. I would rather 
consolidate those offers on a single page.

So.. either some magic consolidation job that takes input from all of 
those project-specific repos to build a nice rendered list... Or just a 
wiki page ?
