I'm going to forward this to seth vidal, who is in charge of such
things, and the Fedora Infrastructure team.

Personally I think that the students/mentees will need access to the
wiki at some point or another. That can definitely count as a second
group.  I've made it a point for my mentee to have a biography on the
wiki, and with the new wiki, it has it's own group in FAS.

To actually put a blog on Planet Fedora, the mentees need to follow
the instructions seth posted a few days ago.
