I'm afraid it is too late for participating this year, but stay tuned
because OSGeo is likely to participate also next year. In the GSoC program,
you are welcome to submit your project proposal, however it is very
important that you discuss it withing the mentor community well beforehand,
in order to find mentors. Your project proposal should involve one or more
OSGeo projects (software). You can find more information here:

Best regards,
Margherita
