I think Season of KDE is closer to GSoC in term of involvement (less rewarding
from a monetary point of view, of course. Google Code-in, if it wasn't change
compared to last years, requires a lot of small tasks, the target are
high-school students (please note I wasn't involved, I just checked from outside)

Most of the points down seems more on SoK than GCI __IMHO__, and for the SoK
ones some can be probably combined:

> * i18n for the main page of d.k.o, make it translatable
Coding, SoK, not sure how small is for GCI

> 
> * new screenshots for docbooks in kf5
GCI

> 
> * add kf5 docbooks into development section of d.k.o
SoK, (I suspect the time required to explain how things work will take more
time than doing it myself)

> 
> * replace repo based names in the tree on d.k.o with better user centric names
SoK

> 
> * add an action to khelpcenter to download the pdf from d.k.o
Uhm, not sure. SoK for sure (with something else). Maybe GCI.

Together with the one above, SoK. Maybe GCI.

> 
> * add a search functionality to khelpcenter
SoK definitely.

Personal note: I can't personally help with mentoring those programs right now.
