I chose to finish the Agora Website project on Octave's list([[http://wiki.octave.org/Summer_of_Code_Project_Ideas#Finish_the_Agora_website]]).
Agora is a present code sharing website for GNU Octave based on Django using Celeryd.
I'd like to focus totally on the project completion and the stuff remaining to be put up on Agora Project Site.
Unfortunately the bundles and forge portion of the website are presently non functional and would not work without Celeryd.
There is an open source project like Agora for Scipy called Scipy Central. Scipy Central is presently in a better working state than Agora (and it does not work with celeryd), hence I have chosen to modify and upgrade the ScipyCentral system for Octave this summer.

I've talked with Jordi Gutiérrez Hermoso regarding this project and I've deployed a local instance of the project on my machine. I shall be developing it as per the instructions given to me.
Things working with Scipy Central:
1) login-email system.
2) snipplet sharing system.
3) zip file sharing system. (the contents of zip are displayed)
 
What all needs to be done with Scipy Central:
1)Extend the working capability with other archive methods.
2)Input a commenting system.  
3)Permission changes in various areas.( make the guest user to see the title and category of submission but not the exact code)
4)Make the user interface Octave like. ( css-html edits)
5)Make profiles more responsive -> add chat like support/profile picture etc.
