That is brilliant. I am happy to tout for potential students in the computer science dept at this university, but don't think saying to the head of computing "Oi, check out this URL" and pointing to the wiki page will be very fruitfull. Could someone please write a very short blurb to put it in context - such that it can be emailed or attached?
Something like: What Google SoC is? What OSM project is? What commitment students have to make? What benefits to students are? What procedure students have to follow? Timescale for applying How mentoring works I am sure I can think of other places to then use this information to try to reach potential students. Sorry, I am not close enough to GSoC to be able to do this part myself, but also know that Gregory will do same at Durham given the right info, and I am sure others will be able to do similar.
