I don't see why you couldn't also apply for a slot. Having floats would be cool (but not simple). I'm not sure about your work on FOrayFont. I think the projects have to be tied to one of the organizations listed by Google. Only the client part in FOP would be part of that. So floats would be the better option I guess.
I'm sure I can count on other FOP committers to help me with the mentoring job if we take on two projects. BTW, both of you should make sure you're eligible for participating in the SoC. See the Students FAQ on the Google SoC site. Someone who applied last year wasn't a student.
