So splitting up means we could almost do a mini-summit at the google campus on google's expenses ;). Actually, they have a limited budget and if you live too far (say, in Brazil), the trip might not be 100% free :) > Please coordinate that with Carol. Apparently traction for GSOC is declining (according to last year's summit). So there might be plenty of available slots this year. So I'd say sign up separately for now and if you don't get accepted, just join forces with us! Yes, that's a good plan and I fully agree that we get more benefits if we apply separately. It's a call to libvirt's people.
