Looking for a mentor in programming.

I work as a java developer, but i think i need a certain boost from someone who's more proficient than my colleagues.

I can spend at least 20 hrs a week helping/learning on your project.

I'm the business co-founder of a startup in Japan called MakeLeaps. Co-incidentally, I run the Hacker News Tokyo meet-ups with my co-founder Paul.

I'd be interested to learn some programming (enough to be dangerous) perhaps by working on a small project with someone who is willing to help me out and teach me.

In return, I'm happy to talk about anything/everything I know about business/marketing/sales/product/validation.

Edit: motivated to learn Python/Django/webdev!
