Application
Google Summer of Code has a formal application process for mentoring applications this year. The window is March 5-12. This section is for development of our joint application with Annodex.
Here are the questions the GSoC faq says we must address:

Why is your organization applying to participate in GSoC 2007? What do you hope to gain by participating?
Did your organization participate in GSoC 2005 or 2006? If so, please summarize your involvement and the successes and failures of your student projects.
If your organization has not previously participated in GSoC, have you applied in the past? If so, for what year(s)?
Who will your organization administrator be? Please include Google Account information.
What license does your project use?

What is the main development mailing list for your organization?

What is the main IRC channel for your organization?
We use freenode (irc.freenode.net), with a number of channels. #xiph is the main organisation-wide one, but we also have project channels: #vorbis, #theora, #icecast are the major ones.
