This is last year's page:
https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/GSoC-2015-project-ideas

Some ideas have been worked on, others are still relevant. Let's copy this

That's always the tricky part. We normally let people indicate whether
they're interested in mentoring for specific project ideas on the ideas
page.

That's the easiest part, takes one email and one wiki page edit:)
