Unfortunately we were rejected:

Thank you for submitting "FVWM" organization application to Google Summer of
Code 2012.  Unfortunately, we were unable to accept your organization's
application at this time.  We received many more applications for the
program than we are able to accommodate, and we would encourage you to
reapply for future instances of the program.  

Best regards,

  Google Open Source Programs


But that doesn't mean to say people wanting to work on FVWM need only wait
for GSoC.
