Re: Applying for GSOC

[Ori Bernstein <ori@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So, as shared on IRC when we found out, we didn't make it in. Here's
Google's feedback, in their own words:

	Hi Ori,

	We were on the fence with your application. Ultimately it came down to
	numbers. We had 369 applications and were only able to accept 180 orgs
	this year so we had to say no to many orgs. This is the primary reason
	you were rejected.

	Your ideas list is good, and we do try and accept new orgs each year
	so we encourage you to apply again in the future. Unfortunately we had
	to say no to many folks and this year that included Myrddin.

	Sorry!

	Cat
