This. A thousand times this.

I think there's a perception among people applying to GSOC that we're
judging the project. This is not true. In fact, when we judge
proposals the actual project is almost an afterthought! Our main goal
is to pick students that *will actually deliver*: I'll always vote for
a proposal I find unexciting but realistic over one that proposes
something awesome that seems like it won't get done.

You main goal should be to prove to us that you can deliver. If you
can't prove your ability to Get Things Done, then what you're
proposing to do kinda doesn't matter.
