I re-re-read the FAQ and here is what I interpret:

Anyone may submit to Google a proposal (any meaning a student). Google will then take their favorite 200 and pass these along to the mentoring organizations. The mentoring organizations can give a thumbs up or down because they need to approve that the work was done at the end of the time period.

Its up to the discretion of each project to incorporate the code produced by the student. But if the code is not worthy to be accepted, the student can still be paid (by Google) if the mentor says its OK. [I would imagine there could be cases where code is produced but not committed for a variety of reasons.]

So it seems the wiki was a communication vehicle to let folks know what project mentoring organizatoins were interested in since it was up the mentoring organizations to say yes or no to whether they wish to mentor a specific proposal.

I have no idea of the ramifications if multiple folks are interested in the same project and it they should submit competing or complementary proposals. I guess the google group dedicated to this has more information there.

For those interested in Summer of code what do we need to do next? Is having the Wiki up to date enough? And we sit back while participants submit their proposals and Google chooses whom will get the stipend, while the folks listed on the Wiki mentor?

Very good questions :) I'm interested too.

I added the JSTL tag plugins for Jasper as another project, BTW.
