I submitted our application to Google and we're just waiting for March 16th, when we'll hear whether we've been accepted.
We were accepted.
Students won't be able to formally apply till March 26th, but until then we encourage students to start proposals on subpages of their mediawiki.org userpages, get feedback, and look for mentors.
I'm also thankful to everyone who's offering to mentor this year - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2012#Mentor_signup . If you're interested in mentoring, please read https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2012/management#GSoC_managemen... and http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCMentoring/ . I want to make sure all our students have excellent experiences, and mentoring is a big part of that.
