I just want to clarify that Google got back to us and they said that
we didn't do anything wrong, but established organizations may take a
year off every now and then, so that they can accept new
organizations. This time it was us. They encouraged us to apply next
year. Overall, there is no problem, that's how the program works and I
never expected to be accepted each year for granted. On the contrary,
each year we got accepted, it was great news and a pleasant surprise.

And no, I don't believe that Firefox's default search engine had any
say in this year's GSoC.
