Don't go for brownie points. Go for real contribution and you'll create something really useful for someone else. Else wait for the Google SoC to get more ideas. I know just 1 Indian dude who is working on a Google SoC in Samba. Yet to see him complete anything. :D
There are around 4/5 indian guys working on various Google SoC projects like Ubuntu, Horde, GNOME etc.
