What do you mean? Are you talking about a conference being run somewhere by Google or do you mean we should run a FreeCAD GSoC Mentors summit our selves? If the first, did you forget to post a URL or something? :)

I won't go this year. If any of you is interested in going, have a word with Sean! It's a very cool event, you get to know a lot of other open source people. Only condition, you must be a GSOC mentor this year. As we are the biggest project of the org, we certainly can get a seat...
PS, this year it's not in California, it's in Germany (Munich I think)

It seems lodging is included and its possible to get some reimbursement for travel.
I'm sorry to hear Yorik will not be attending. You are such a great ambassador for the project.

It would be great if FreeCAD had a representative, it does look like a cool event.

Yeah, please, if any of you feels like it, it would be great to have a freecad person there!!
Google pays for the travel and food and accommodation during the days of the event (earlier editions they paid 3 nights for the 2-day summit, this time the summit is 3 days, so it might be more). So basically you have to pay nothing at all.
