I would be happy to mentor such project, but please consider the following:
1 - we will only accept applications from users that have already
contributed to the project. It is all good to tell us what you can
do but you will also have to show us. I already provided you with
some easy projects. You haven't submitted a single patch yet.
2 - for your specific project, would be better to have a proof of
concept. Are you sure Octave has what it needs to do it? If it
doesn't, then the project would turn into improving Octave's java
interface which is a very different thing and would probably require
a mentor other than me.
3 - I believe that most of ImageJ plugins and functions do not use
imglib2, instead use the original ImageJ classes. There may be more
value on using that instead. It should at least make distribution
easier for downstream packagers since ImageJ2 seems like a pain and
is packaged by no one.
4 - we expect GSoC students to take it as full-time job. I don't know
the details of your PhD studies, but please be aware of what we will
expect from you time-wise.
