Round 1: contact the mentor organizations and write a project proposal based on ideas the organization has suggested. If accepted, GSoC contributors spend a few weeks becoming familiar with the community norms and codebase while determining expected milestones with their mentor for the summer.
Round 2: spend 12+ weeks coding on their projects.
