Hi, Aditya. You should start by reading these pages:
        http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2011/nmap
        http://nmap.org/soc/
        http://nmap.org/soc/GeneralRequirements.html
        http://nmap.org/soc/apply.html

I've been keeping a set of notes about IPv6 implementation; you can see
them by running the command
        svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap-exp/david/ipv6
Please look at the file ipv6.c in that directory and comment on anything
you find confusing or interesting.

You have a bit more than a week to write a proposal explaining what you
want to do and submit it. When you have specific ideas you can send them
to this mailing list and people can comment on them.
