You can see the projects for KDE at [1], as well for the other organisations, but I'm not sure if they published the final overviews that the other projects published.
For what I can see by skimming through soc-admins right now, PHP project launched a new version of [2] last october, with SoC work embedded; KOffice 1.6 contains at least two SoC projects results (KFormula and Krita improvements), as Luca pointed out FFmpeg got a working VC-1 decoder (and WMV3 came with that), and now the AC3 and AMR decoders are getting in shape; Amarok got DAAP support half working during SoC and completed afterward (in this case the developer was a previous Amarok developer anyway), 1.4.5 have working both client and server DAAP support. For boost you can look at [3], quoting: | Seven projects were completed or nearly completed and the students are | expected to ask for a formal review within 2006 or early 2007.

There are a few more info that were posted directly on the list and as I'm not sure if they were public, so I didn't quote or copy out of them, and I don't have a pointer for them as the list is private. I didn't find anything from us, note even as a post on the list, which is somewhat disappointing.
