MediaWiki has participated in several (Google) Summer of Code iterations now (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code) and I'm wondering how this partnership program is evaluated.
After I posted this, Sumana pointed out that MaxSem has done a great evaluation here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:MaxSem/GSoC_analysis.
There's also a good overview of past projects at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_Past_Projects.
And, of course, should MediaWiki decide not to participate in Google Summer of Code in 2013, are there other [better] ideas for getting people involved in MediaWiki development?
Perhaps a better model: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/UCOSP_Spring_2012?
