AFAIK now, the gsoc project will be almost JavaScript only and some Perl. Since this is the main thing I am planning do, I would love to do it in a good manner.

The current contributors are mainly,
    John 'Warthog9' Hawley <warthog9@**.net>
    Jakub Narebski <jnareb@**.com>
    Petr Baudis <pasky@**.cz>

I would love to get some advice regarding this from them.
