I meant using the Private Comment functionality to put in their notes
and observations as well as conclusions if they so desire. Since those
notes are available to OrgAdmins and other mentors, it helps document
the conversation while keeping it restricted to a private group.

As in, The Fedora Project is using the Student Evaluation Matrix as a
tool in this GSoC. Were the mentors informed of this change before?

The mentor recommends. Selecting and assessing is still something that
the OrgAdmin does together with the mentors. The entire organization
is involved in selecting the best proposals.
