we are delighted that you found contributing to GCC interesting.  The
next step usually is to discuss your project here on the mailing list.
Often the community can help students come up with better scoped and
focused proposals.  So I would suggest you briefly introduce your
intended project here on the mailing list.

That depends on the particular mentor, I cannot speak on behalf of all
of them.  But I think most would prefer a discussion over email, and
ideally on the gcc@gcc.gnu.org mailing list.

Good luck,

Martin

Greetings,

I saw a task on your site for GSoC called <<Enable incremental Link Time
Optimization (LTO) linking>>. I am very interested in it, and I would
like to know if it is possible to do it this summer. I have experience
in C/C++ development as well as experience in related fields. I know how
to compile GCC, and I have a top-level understanding of how LTO works.
Unfortunately, I've never written compilers yet, but I've had experience
in developing a LISP interpreter, and I've also watched a lot of
conference talks about compilers. I am sending a link to my CV. I hope
that you will be interested in it. Can I ask you to tell me about the
further screening process for GSoC?
