First up, you're a bit early: we haven't even *applied* to be part of GSoC, let alone been accepted, and we're still at the point of trying to figure out what projects are feasible and what ones we have the necessary mentors for.
So what I'd suggest for you right now:
(1) Give us a week or two to refine those ideas before assuming they're actually suitable for a GSoC project and that we have the mentoring support necessary to do them.
That one, to be honest, may be too small to be a complete GSoC project in and of itself. I expect it will have to be paired with a couple of other features before it'd be anywhere near 3 months of paid work.
(2) Given that you have experience with django, I'd like to encourage you to consider some of the bigger projects in the interface. You've already done some bug fixes, why not try to tackle a full feature in Postorius? There's going to be less competition from other students for the more complex projects and way more motivation on our part to get them completed, so it actually improves your chances of being selected as a student if you get yourself ready to handle one of those.

Please guide me through the next steps so that i can know more about the project and discuss it with the mentor.
