Hi Roshan, I would be happy to be your mentor through GSoC 2015 for Wave.
I think this would be a great opportunity to contribute some major work to the existing codebase, culminating in an Android App, but there is plenty to be done here to make it all work. If you get some time, hop onto #wiab on freenode, and we could discuss exactly what the project proposal should look like - and how it would fit in with your interests.
