Not yet :-)  I can only second what Urs said.

PS: If I do a google search for `lilypond gsoc', the first hit is the
    old

      http://lilypond.org/gsoc.html

    and only the second hit is the current

      http://lilypond.org/google-summer-of-code.html

    Any chance to fix this quickly, for example, to copy the latter to
    the former?
