I don't know how it has been in the last years, but until now we only have 32 proposals. There are still two days left but I doubt that we will see significantly more. Any ideas what (if any) might be wrong and what we could do?
32 is very low. I've seen a few comments on the GSoC mentors list observing applications are down.
One reason, in my opinion, is this new interface for the webapp is a joke. It is really hard to find the the opportunities available.
Another reason might be that we are now listed under "The" rather than "Apache", the old system used to ignore the "The"
A final reason, as you say, is roughly double the number of orgs, but I'd expect that to half the proposals not decimate them.
There is usually a fair number in the last few days, at least it means alot less work for the admins ;-)
