Good point Luciano - we need to move to GSOC only - or better still
something not linked to GSoC, e.g. mentored. A search and a batch update
will do the job nicely. We can adjust our search to include GSoC, GSoC2013
and mentored to catch those who didn't do the update.

I think this is a good idea if you have the time. I'm certain the
OpenMeetings project will be very happy to provide a teleconferencing
solution.

Short summary:
about 30 students attended despite the short notice, some want to apply now.
The greatest hurdles to
overcome seem to be fears of not being good enough and questions regarding
their student status that
is tightly coupled to their income (it's complicated here in Germany).

Lots of good thoughts already, and I agree with Ross it is the quality and not
quantity.
But I think not all projects have the awareness and what they can get out of
GSoC. There is a lot of good documentation as Uli and others have pointed out.
PMC's have to be motivated to look at them. Emai

3 months plus community bonding period, so yes, plenty of time to become
familiar with the project
and product.

GSoC is 4 months of work IIRC, should be enough for more than a
smallish task given capable students.

Good idea.
We already have most of it at [1] and [2] but the blog won't hurt.

IMO, most of the communications that you currently send to pmcs@ could
go to http://blogs.apache.org/com
