I'm not totally qualified to answer, but the best thing may be to look at
the examples linked on the DragonFly SoC projects page about this and see
how much sense they make.  Also, #dragonflybsd on EFNet (IRC) may have
answers for you.

The student application period has started; writing out an application may
be the best way to focus on the issue.  Make sure to plan out the schedule
in as detailed a fashion as possible!
