I agree with Aaron here. We barely get enough mentors for GSoC, so I'm not sure how this will be possible. We could apply and then subtract the rails girls mentors from the possible GSoC mentors. There is also no guarantee we'll get all the GSoC spots we want.
In general, it'd be best to determine the number of potential mentors soon and then make the call. I've also added the UCD Symengine team which is going to take some mentor load too.
