Vivek, Excited that you are interested in the Mapnik project.
Mapnik is largely written in C++. Are you interested in learning C++? If not, but you are interested in a mapping related GSOC project you should keep an eye on the OpenStreetMap project and OSGEO, both two other organizations that usually apply to GSOC and are mapping related. Last year we worked closely with a student on a python project that used Mapnik but was part of OpenStreetMap: http://openpapermaps.com/maps/about Thanks!
