One more question. Do you feel this is a job that someone who

Any motivated individual with little to moderate expertise can
do it. The application is for the most part filling forms and
creating prose. A person who's on top of things can prod
contributors into submitting ideas, rally mentors, make sure
the related web pages are in good shape, etc. etc. etc. To put
things into perspective, we could have missed the deadline if
the thing didn't bubble up to my level of consciousness.

In that case, as Yoda would say:
Volunteer to prepare GSoC 2015 proposal I shall.
Do you have copies of past submissions as a guideline, or is it
just what is on the Wiki.
