I've done some more editing of the page.

I deleted it.  (I may bring it up again next year, however. ;-)  (I felt 
comfortable deleting this as it was my suggestion (at least in terms of 
adding it to the GSoC list).)

I didn't delete this, but there are a lot of comments there now.   Should we 
delete it?

Absolutely--a student making a proposal to the NEdit project must provide 
their code to the NEdit project under the terms of the license which NEdit 
uses.  

I wasn't very clear here (and I can't be entirely clear), but I get the 
impression that at some point the student's code (only, with no other code) 
had to be put somewhere for whatever reason.  If we get selected as a 
mentoring organization, we'll have to get clarification on exactly what they 
require.
