Much as I'd love personally to take up this opportunity, previous commitments preclude it. I wonder whether it might attract someone at Google? They certainly have an interest in analytic linguistics and familiarity with high-level languages; while Summer of Code might appear superficially to be a vehicle of some sort, I believe it's already closed to new project ideas ...
I'd ask also among the practitioners of ML, Lisp, J, Snobol, and other high-level languages that I believe are likeliest to host interest in graph theory. It's certainly true, though, that Python boasts at least a couple. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
