Hi Sabhya, Yes, you are now on the list. Thanks for your quick resume; it does sounds to me that you are qualified.
This is the first year that Isis is taking part in the GSOC programme, so I'm learning as I go as to what our responsibilities (as mentors) are. I've just signed up to the google-melange site [1] and registered as a mentor, if you haven't already I think you need to also. Regarding prepping for the project, I coincidentally noticed an InfoQ article [2] plugging a new book. My reading of that article is that XTend/XText is probably the way to go, but there are some other options there too that should probably be looked at and explored also.
