In the past, the GSoC participants seemed to have done their work in
isolation away from the main community.  I often felt the community didn't
hear much from most participants.
I think this is a bit adverse to the state goals of GSoC...

 * Help open source projects identify and bring in new developers. [1]
 * Help students integrate with their development community and so
encourage them to become lifetime contributors [1]
 * During the bonding period, students are expected to get to know their
project communities and participate in project discussion [1]
 * Get students engaged socially in the project. [2]
 * This is about building the STUDENT’S experience. Getting code in your
project is a nice side effect. [3]

Perhaps those are worth some focus in the application and project
selection.
