This looks like some "gentle" spam to me… :)
Any dev tool could spam GSOC projects. We could it too:
"XWiki, the perfect collaboration tool for GSOC students and mentors. Install XWiki
and have some great collaboration to make your GSOC project a success" ;)
What makes it even worse is that their tool is closed source…

Hello GSoC Mentors,
As you are participating to Google Summer of Code, I'm wondering if you could
consider using Flower Dev Center [1] while working with students.
Flower Dev Center is an online platform for UML modeling diagramming, with a strong focus
on code synchronization, integration with dev tools (Git, SVN, etc) and real time
collaboration on diagrams (and a little bit on code as well).
We think Flower Dev Center can be helpful for both: mentors and students during Google
Summer of Code. We have created an article on this topic (i.e. Flower Dev Center + GSoC):
[2], [3].
If you have a couple of spare minutes, could you tell us if you would like to use Flower
Dev Center? And/or raise topics that you think are important (based on previous GSoC
participations) to be supported by Flower Dev Center?
REMARK1: Right now, Flower Dev Center is closed source and offered for free to
open-source projects. Starting with next version we'll begin to open its API and
source code, so that anyone could write extension plugins, etc.
REMARK2: The next version of Flower Dev Center, the 2.0.0 planned for June/July 2013, has
major new features, that we did not demonstrate yet and that will improve even more the
collaboration between developers.
REMARK3: Flower Dev Center will support programming languages that are not object
oriented, starting with 2.0.0
Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Mircea @ The Flower Platform Team.
