OK, so perhaps I spoke too soon. I swapped mail with Leslie and it
looks like I convinced her - we now have 12 slots! Woo!

I doubt very much that we'll get any more, so the list as it stands
is, I think, just about final. I'm therefore making this a last call
for mentor reviews. Unless there is a major change in rankings and
scores in the next few hours, we're finished. I'm reasonably happy
that the top 12 applications are all good and likely to succeed. Shout
NOW if you want to change things, please.
