It seems that GNU is only getting 10 slots or so this year, with more
than 10 projects and some 50 applications, so Guile will be lucky if it
gets one slot.  It is quite difficult, as we did get four good
proposals, yours included; but the thing isn't settled yet, so we'll
have to wait for Monday to announce the results in the end.  I'm just
catching up with things now; was on holiday earlier in the week.

Regards,

Andy
