There should be an official email from the OBF representative
today (or tomorrow in my time zone) announcing the results -
but I imagine as one of the applicants you've been contacted
via Google already.

So for now I'll briefly confirm that, yes, the number of applications
by Bio* project varied, but the student proposals are ranked on
merit regardless of which Bio* project they are for. See:
http://www.open-bio.org/wiki/Google_Summer_of_Code_Application_Evaluation

This is linked to from the main OBF GSoC page,

Regards,

Peter
