 I did some general tidying up in the Trac yesterday, including
 closing some of the projects that were done last year.  I'd urge
 others to go and take a look too; I didn't do a complete sweep.

 I think that it would be good if we this year would make a short(ish)
 list of the projects that we think are the most important, and let
 the students focus on applying for those. My impression from last
 year is that there were lots of project proposals, most of which
 could not be considered important enough to be one of the projects we
 pick, no matter how good the students were who wanted to do them.

I really like this idea.  I think we have some strategically important
things that people could work on.

peace,
