Much as I'd love personally to take up this opportunity,
previous commitments preclude it.  I wonder whether it
might attract someone at Google?  They certainly have
an interest in analytic linguistics and familiarity with
high-level languages; while Summer of Code might appear
superficially to be a vehicle of some sort, I believe it's
already closed to new project ideas ...

I'd ask also among the practitioners of ML, Lisp, J, Snobol,
and other high-level languages that I believe are likeliest
to host interest in graph theory.  It's certainly true, 
though, that Python boasts at least a couple.
