[Ndn-interest] [EXT] Request for Mentor Program

[Mohammad Ishfaque Jahan Rafee]

Hi Junxiao,
NDN-Go doesn't meet the requirements, but NDN itself does, isn't it? The
way I see it, NDN-Go or python-ndn is binding for the underlying NDN
project. I am not talking about rewriting the whole NDN in Go, which the
previous maintainer did. However, if it's binding to the existing
well-established project, such as NDN, then it starts to make more sense.

And yes, this initiative is very similar to GSoC.
