Having a standardized form to fill in weekly reports would help students, mentors and admins to keep track of deadlines without jumping from link to link...

*'''collective chat for students'''

Creating a common chat platform for students on e.g. Slack. This would help with staying in touch with them, communication could go faster between us Admins and mentors. Moreover, students could share resources between them, experiences how they managed to overcome certain difficulties, this came of great help for  GSoC newtimers. If moderated correctly with a little bit of effort this can turn into a very good thing community-wise, bonding between students, increase collaboration, reinforce the ideas of an open source community.
