Hello Jakub, I tweeted to you, but as your last tweet was from January, I'm  
guessing here [personal email via Google Profile] is probably a better
place to talk.

Actually the discussion of GSoC project application ideas with mentoring
organization[1] should take place in the open, on git mailing list,
git@vger.kernel.org.  (You don't need to be subscribed to send email to
it, and there is custom on this mailing list of Cc-ing all people
participating in discussion; you can read git mailing list via other
interfaces e.g. via GMane.)

The parenthesized part applies to general audience but not to GSoC
students, I would think. Isn't the participation in the mentoring
community mandatory for them?
