I'm at Illinois as well (I work for Vikram Adve). May I ask under who
you are studying?

You will need to have a much more concrete proposal for GSoC. I'm
assuming that your static analysis is for bug finding; is that correct?
If so, your proposal should describe what sort of errors your static
analysis will find, how your analysis will work, and how it will be
integrated into Clang/LLVM. You should also state whether your analysis
will work at the Clang AST level, the LLVM IR level, or some combination
thereof.
I heard the proposal deadline was Friday (although I'm not mentoring
this summer, so I could be wrong on the date). If you want feedback,
you should add these things to your proposal and send them to the
correct list (cfe-dev for Clang, llvmdev for LLVM) for feedback.
Your final proposal should also include a detailed schedule of how the
work will proceed and long it will take; it should also include an
explanation of why you're qualified for the position. You will
basically need to provide something like a CV describing your work,
school, and coding experience. I believe mentors will place more weight
on coding experience than academic credentials.
Good luck.
