I did part of my job. I revisited all topics.pharo.org (in github soon
on topics.pharo.org).
Now I do not want to hear about GSOC.

Now google say... "Umbrella organizations get more slots.
If an organization is acting as an umbrella for other projects, chances are
we'll allocate more students to you simply because there's a great deal of
different types of work to be done, and we're hoping our students will end
up with something that appeals to them among this wide offering." [1]
The Pharo Consortium might conceivably be considered an umbrella organization,
if a reasonable amount of selected projects relate to applications built on top
of Pharo
and not "just" improvements in the Pharo release. e.g. SciSmalltalk, PhaROS,
Phratch.
I guess that is a balance to be determined later.
New organizations get a low number of slots. Marginalizing other
smalltalks is not in our best interest.
I think it would be sad not to run as Esug this year. Running as Esug shows we
can overcome last years trouble, and start healing the pain.
I totally understand Stef doesn't want to be involved, considering the amount
of accusations and abuse it has brought, not just last year.
