Yes. There's an ASF committee called "comdev"
(http://community.apache.org/gsoc.html) that manages our participation
in GSoC. They will do the application on the foundation's behalf and
post info to all PMCs about how to participate on the ASF end if a
project is interested. ComDev will also manage the ranking process -
when you have 70+ projects interested in participating even when you
have 30-40 slots, the review process can get a bit "heated"
internally. (If you're interested in tracking this, you might want to
join dev_at_community.apache.org.) -- justin
