 Yes. Obviously more important the organization and more applications it
has, more slots it gets. But there are probably other factors in play, and
nobody (except Google folks organizing this) know for sure. To be honest, I
did have a secret hope we might get slightly more slots this year but then
the minimum number of applications per organization seems to be 2 and not 3
unlike the last time so while it could have been better, it could have been
worse too. And, of course, we could have been not accepted at all and any
number of slots is better than 0 so I'm still very happy about us getting
even the same number of projects as the last year.

 This is probably something I'll try to do myself as this involves
modifying all ports...

 Yes, this is the plan.

 Very nice, thanks for the information,
