Your project sounds interesting.  You may want to mail some of the
specific individuals listed on the project website to identify a
mentor (though posting to this list was also a good idea):

  http://www.freebsd.org/projects/summerofcode.html

Also, I hear that David Maxwell of the NetBSD Project is working in
this area and so he might be a natural person to work with (and of
course the FreeBSD project would also be interested in this work, but
working with him would mean listing NetBSD as the mentoring
organization).

Good luck!
