Just to respond to this point: not necessarily.  I would say the primary goal 
is to build relationships with the students and recruit new developers.  If we 
get useful code out of the process as well, that's great, but it isn't the 
priamry goal.  In addition, doing a GSOC project isn't a guarantee of getting 
code into the tree (even though it may often work out that way), and we should 
avoid marketing it as such.
