Hi, Filip, and welcome to our community. Yes, you probably should have started a new mailing list thread to introduce yourself rather than replied to an existing thread on a different topic, but that's a minor sin. :-) I hope you invent or find a Google Summer of Code project idea that appeals to you, start writing a proposal (a subpage of your mediawiki.org userpage would be a good place to put it), and share it here and on our IRC channel https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_on_IRC .
