Hello Aditya,
Welcome to Mahout!
Here is some information on GSoC requirements [1]. While Mahout has
participated in the GSoC before, please note that you must find a committer
on the Mahout project who will have the bandwidth to be a good mentor to
you. My suggestion would be to start with this step.
Hope this helps,
Andy

Hello Andrew,
With respect to the application process for Google Summer of Code, once you
guys are sure that I'll be able to contribute to the community on something
meaningful during summer. I'll be drafting a proposal (with guidance from
someone from Mahout) detailing the timeline and the plan of action. I guess
the mentor will be decided based on what my contribution is going to be.
I'm sorry for the delay in replying. It has been a crazy week for me in
terms of my thesis. I'll take some time and look through the framework and
try to get some hands on experience by contributing to a bug fix / an
existing issue in Jira.
I had a question though, do I submit the application proposal to someone
from Mahout? or is there a centralized process for ASF as a whole.
PS: With respect to help from your side, it would be a mentor willing to
mentor me through the summer as I work. I will talk to Saikat and see of
what use I can be in the Generalized Linear Model that has been proposed.
Best Regards,
Aditya

Disclaimer: Last time I mentored is years ago.
Back then the ASF applied as a whole to be accepted as organisation for
GSoC. I remember Uli Stärk explaining once to me some of the paperwork
required from the "OSS project side". Upon acceptance, Google granted
several dozen slots for students, those were then distributed across
projects. The exact process should be on the com dev page here:
