JM, We recently increased the lifetime project limit to 25 for everyone.
And, I set yours to 50, since an instructor setting up student projects are a valid usage that would need a lot of project. Feel free to ask for more if you continue to use Google Code with your students in future years. Also, I encourage you to label all student projects with the label "students", that helps other users set their expectations about future maintenance, etc. Thanks, jason!
