Disclaimer for sharing which GSoC projects have applications

Several weeks back Moritz told GSoC applicants which project ideas people had
already applied for. Personally I'm fine with this - making this public can
spread out our strong applicants. This is good for both them and us. However,
we should be upfront about this so adding a notice to our GSoC page.
