My experience with GSoC is limited to reading, but the way I
understand it is that GSoC defines three kinds of parties:

 - Students (that's obvious)
 - Mentors (that could be you)
 - Mentoring organisation (in this case, Emweb).

The mentoring organisation coordinates the ideas, students and
mentors. The mentor is responsible for following up on a student who
takes on one of the Ideas, evaluating his work, provide guidance, and
judge whether he succeeds or fails (gets his money or not). The mentor
gets 500 USD for his work.

Obviously, the mentor should be someone who has the knowledge, time
and will to guide the student. Preferably he is the one that is the
one who propose an idea and/or is the strongest advocate of it.

Regards,
koen
