Sorry, I was coy earlier; I was waiting on some feedback from Karen.

To be clear, CodeWeavers will sponsor it and provide the $6,500.  So if
we have someone to volunteer to coordinate, and a few people willing to
mentor, we should be good.  (I already have Stefan, so we have game
related stuff covered).
