I would like to attend and have discussed this a bit with Stephan, who
is currently the Haiku GSoC administrator. Google would like one
mentor coming to the summit to be in the US (to reduce travel costs,
which they reimburse), and I'm the only Haiku mentor who qualifies for
that. Lucky me ;)
The only issue right now is for us to do whatever we have to do to
ensure we (as in the mentors who want to go) are officially invited by
Google. I'm not sure if Stephan has to do something or if each of us
has to. I want to get this settled soon as the summit is a little over
two weeks away and plane tickets are just going to get more expensive
as we get closer to the date.

Since Google covers most of the costs I think it would be smart for at
least some of us to attend the summit.

I think that would be great, and would enjoy meeting you folks in that
area (Jorge, Urias, Travis, et al.)
I would also hope to have something WebKit related to show off by
then, but don't hold me to it ;)

Ryan
