Re: Google Summer of Code questions.
The basic format is a student works on a specific project which is over seen by a mentor. Have a look here.

The mentor is someone involved in that project and so can guide you on the specifics. There are many different types of projects which have been accepted. So have a look at the different projects which need coders. It can be for anything from the Linux chrome browser project to the new Haiku OS.
