You mean that it hasn't been recorded for this year or last year or both?
On Nov 18 last year, the Conservancy told us the following:

"Note that at present we have received a lump-sum ACH from Google for all our GSoC projects, and are still awaiting a per-project breakdown of the funds from them. Assuming all is in order, the travel funds from Google should be $1200 per traveler."

So I don't know when or if Google eventually sent them a per-project breakdown of the funds. Maybe we could ask the Conservancy if they eventually did send it?
