"Google Summer of Code 2007 is on! Last year, Google funded over 600 students in 93 countries to work with 100 open source groups. We're extremely happy to announce that we'll be holding Google Summer of Code again this year. We look forward to helping new contributors join the community and write more code."

SoC is a brilliant concept which I love. There's so many businesses out there trying to build goodwill by donating to the redcross and similar. I like Googles approach by donating to what is in it's field of business. There's nothing wrong with the red cross, just that I like the concept of giving back to "users" so to say.
I think we've seen great progress in projects thanks to SoC, now I just hope we get to see some more newcomers this year (Haiku comes to mind ;P).
Good luck everyone and let's hope we see good things this year as well...
