The GSoC application process for students doesn't start until 14 March. While mentoring organizations haven't formally been announced, we expect the ASF and a number of our Apache projects to be participating - however we don't have that list ready yet. The best thing to do now is review the GSoC site for the process: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/ If you want to start looking at what different projects are at the ASF, you can browse our projects directory - but note, only some projects will be participating in the formal GSoC program: https://projects.apache.org/ Thanks for your interest and good luck! - Shane
