Hi, Maduranga Siriwardena! Thank you for being interested in Wikimedia and in open source software.
First, a quick tip: it's better to include a subject line when you email people, especially on mailing lists. Please see http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ch014_communication-best-practices/for guidance. Now, as you see at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#A_system_for_reviewing_funding_requests, some basic requirements have already been listed. What more do you need to know in order to start your proposal? (Performance benchmarks to hit? Standalone web app vs. extension to an existing system? Perhaps something else?) Asking specific questions is going to be a better way to get answers. I hope this helps!
