I'm happy to announce Aurélien and Andrew both passed the final
evaluation for their GSoC. Join me in congratulating them :)
See their code in action:
Aurélien's Org-sync:

Andrew's Org Merge driver (put your own favorite music):

If you want to test the code:
~$ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-sync.git
~$ git clone git://orgmode.org/org-merge-driver.git
I'm really glad they went so far in these projects, despite
the fact that I could not support them as much as I wanted.
Here are some notes they shared with me about their project,
don't hesitate to pick up some news and ask questions.
Enjoy!
Org-sync -- Use online bugtrackers from Emacs with Org-mode
===========================================================
Org-sync uses a new parser for Org documents and provides a generic
interface to add new backends.
Tutorial, code, screencast (demo) and documentation available at
[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/gsoc2012/student-projects/org-sync/]
Org-sync
--------
What works:
- cache system to prevent fetching everything everytime
- conflict resolution
- synchronization
What doesn't:
- no bugzilla, google code, google task and toodledoo backends
- no conversion from online service markup to org syntax.
Github
------
What works:
- add new bugs
- change status, description, title, etc
- change/create/remove tags
What doesn't:
- milestones ignored
Bitbucket
---------
What works:
- delete/add new bugs
- change status, description, title, type, etc
What doesn't:
- components, versions, milestones ignored
Redmine
-------
What works:
- delete/add new bugs
- change title and description
What doesn't:
- almost every other field is ignored
- not tested very well
Remember the milk
-----------------
What works:
- import existing tasks
What doesn't:
- synchronization not implemented

Org-Merge Driver -- Merge Org Mode documents
============================================
The project webpage is available at:
[http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/gsoc2012/student-projects/git-merge-tool/index.html]
There is small (soundless) demonstration here:
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbaaFmoEfGw]
What Works
----------
- Parsing Org files into data structures
- A system for matching and merging arbitrary lists of data
- Element movement detection
- A system for supporting new types of element
- A testing framework, and a number of tests
Headings
~~~~~~~~
- recognize and merge priority and stat cookies
- recognize and merge TODO states
- recognize and merge TAGS
- support movement detection of UID'ed headings
Text
~~~~
- Merge text blocks using a line-by-line merge strategy
Properties
~~~~~~~~~~
- Recognize properties in a property drawer
- Properly deal with value updates
What doesn't work
-----------------
- Does not support more encodings than UTF-8
- Some movement updates will give unexpected results
Possible Future Features
------------------------
- Able to specify different merge software for different types of blocks
- Footnotes support
- Date Tree support
