I'd like to suggest the following project: Support for the Bibliontology The project attempts to capture BibTex like information in RDF/OWL (http://bibliontology.com/). Zotero, the bibliography FF plugin, is involved in the project. This project would involve writing import and export of bibliographic information based on this RDF/OWL format. BTW, I applied as mentoring organization last year, for the CDK.sf.net and Bioclipse.net, but both were declined. I also was mentor in the KDE project's GSoC last year, involved in text mining using Strigi. Regarding getting chosen as mentoring organization, chances are low, statistically. One thing they value very much is how you pick students, how you guide them, who are doing that, what back up plans you have if a student disappears after having picked for a project, etc. Make sure to have a clear plan on how you mentor the students, and provide as much details as you can possible think of: which 10 people do you have lined up (KDE typically has one backup mentors for each project!), what is their (open source) background, how are candidates chosen (Google will put up all applications online where project mentors can vote on applications for their project, hence stressing the importance of having a good mentor line up and advertise this), how are projects choses (KDE had a IRC session where votes were discussed), who will benefit from your work, etc. Because no declined project ever hears from Google, I have no idea how the specifically pick their projects, particularly in respect to topic, but I recommend stressing integration of JabRef in web2.0, OpenOffice etc. The latter is likely a good selling point. Integration via RDF/OWL with for example the Zotero plugin could be another... Anyway, very much luck wished with the application!
