I've done a tiny bit a research on past GSOC projects, and based
on that is my guess is we have been successful on 5/6 projects -
but I am not really sure about the unsuccessful project.
Successes

I am claiming success based on : https://github.com/cristicbz/scid
The readme for which states " Most of the code from the original
project
by Lars Tandle Kyllingstad has been rewritten during the 2011
Google
Summer of Code by Cristi Cobzarenco".
