Where/how should we post the plans?  Do we want to just start another GSoC wiki page like we did last year?

Yah, a wiki page sounds great.

BTW, is there any summary of how the 2011 D projects went, were all of them finished successfully in GSoC terms? And incorporated into D? I haven't been paying full attention to the newsgroups, so I only saw that blog page about the Thrift one..

The regex engine (Dmitry Olshansky) went into Phobos a release ago. My Thrift stuff is submitted for upstream inclusion (still pending, I hve been holding back the blog post announcing integration for quite a while now^^). Cristi Cobzarenco's work on SciD is, to my understanding, still in a somewhat half-finished state, which is somewhat expected, given the scope of the project, but still unfortunate (David Simcha is continuing to work on it sporadically, I think). Anyway, yes, a summary page is a good idea.

Wiki is up, ice is broken.  Let's start adding some ideas!  I also think this year we should have a possible mentors line next to each project to keep track of who's interested in mentoring what.  For example, I added garbage collection to the page.  If you're also interested in mentoring a GC project, just append yourself to the list of possible mentors.

Added Android and iPhone support ideas... please please please please.  >.<

Unfortunately I would probably make a shitty mentor due to time constraints that would eventually lead to massive negligence, so I'll stay out of that for now.
