Need to know what to do and where to go for GSoC 2017

[NVS Abhilash]

Hello

I am a student of Computer Science from India. I am really interested
in taking part in Google Summer of Code. For that I really liked
Octave's projects and I feel I do have the required skill set for the
same.

But I am not sure where to start whom to ask what and hoe to learn
about what I need to do. I did visited the octave's wiki pages about
GSoC, and Projects and Small projects pages to get a rough idea. Now
that I am interested I am not able to find the docs for octave for how
to hack around and about the Octave Forge.

I would be grateful if you could help me in knowing the following:

1. How and where to start learning about Octave.
2. Whom to contact to get help.
3. How to start developing the projects.

Thank you
