Build an *interwiki notifications*framework and implement it for
InstantCommons.
The problem with these projects is that the mentor who proposed them is
currently silent, and the Commons community didn't weigh in when I
asked. This is why we didn't list them under Featured prpojects ideas at
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects
Being new in the community I recommend you to go for a safer bet, for a
project with a mentor available and a community explicitly engaged.

*MW bugzilla* integration extension.
This extension is maintained by Mozilla and we are discussing with them
whether to make this a featured GSOC / OPW project or not. We are
waiting for an answer from them.

This idea welcomes student projects, yes.
Another student showed an interest in this project (among other) this
weekend in this list. See my answer at

I have installed mediawiki on my LAMP server. I have
also cloned Mozilla
bugzilla to the github.
Good! This reminds me that we should advertise Labs, where you can get
your own instance to experiment and test your MediaWiki projects.

PS: let's use wikitech-l for discussing GSOC / OPW projects, as
recommended at
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#Where_t…
. All potential mentors are subscribed there.
