That would be a great project! It sounds like you've got some experience dealing with this, which is good because it will be difficult. I don't know of a specific mentor to work with on this project, but we also don't have a finished mentor list. It may be worth visiting #dragonflybsd on EFNet IRC to see if there's anyone present to discuss it. My advice to you would be to work on a proposal for submission after the 26th. Be as explicit as possible; you can't overplan for Summer of Code, especially for a more complex project. Remember that the proposal is both a plan to make it easier for you to finish, and a demonstration to whomever mentors you that you've thought this through.
