There is in the end going to be a value judgement because the projects
will be very different. I agree with 2 key points

Defined outcome is essential.
The benefit to furthering free software in the opinion of the decision
panel. 

I doubt you can be more precise than that.

Beyond this some account of ability to use the funding to lever further
funding might also be a recommendation though this could be considered
to be contained in point 2.
