Yes, I think there should be a Sage GSOC application.   I'm OK with
being listed as a mentor.  However, I won't write the actual
application, since I wrote three applications in a row that were all
turned down, so clearly I don't know how to write one.

What happened last year, by the way, was that several people wanted to
write a GSOC application.  However, nobody volunteered to mentor any
Sage-related GSOC projects at all.  As a result, we did not even apply
to have Sage as a mentoring organization.
