First note that so far no organization has been picked yet by
Google, so what I tell you here depends on this decision.

You should go and talk with your potential mentor Max (in CC),
who can give you more details about the idea and clarify
questions about the idea that you (should) have.
If JBoss is then selected, you are required to come up with a
proposal including a detailed timeline that shows what you
will implement when. Of course you need to sync up with your
mentor on it.
I believe that it will be helpful if you start interacting with
the project community and looking at existing code even
if it is an uncertain bet on the future. In the past we got a lot
more submissions from students than Google gave us
slots for students, so students that have already interacted
well with the community will be in a better position in
the selection process.
