I have already looked at these resources, have completed the competency test
for the multiprecision project and drafted a proposal for that project. 

My question was as to whether someone is interested in mentoring the data
structure project, originally mentioned by degski (but which is not included
in the official list).

I have several ideas for implementing data-structures, some of which will be
useful for practical algorithms (e.g. meldable heaps in Chu-Liu-Edmonds' for
directed MST - for which I have a sample implementation).
