I agree it would be nice to have some well-defined rules so that
everything is fair. But I do not know what those rules should be.

You have said things like "5 most important" in your email, but I do not
see any metric for defining that. Is it "git shortlog"? I am not sure
that is the best metric (try generating your own list and comparing it
with shortlog). Also, is it "shortlog" over all time, or "shortlog
--since=1.year.ago", or some other time period.

I had hoped by inviting people to express their need, that the
invitation would be equally open to everyone, and we could then get an
idea of the scope of need.

By the way, nobody has contacted me asking for travel money at this
point.
