    I have to disagree with you here: I think the fairest way to go about this
    is to have a random drawing among all interested active mentors for *both*
    slots. I don't see why any specific sub-organization should be preferred,
    do you?
    
I don't get your point.

There is not such a thing as a "sub-organization" in the SoC program.
The organization which will be represented by the two delegates at the
mentors summit is the GNU Project, not a single GNU program
participating under the GNU umbrella.

To me it makes perfect sense for the organization admin (who is the
person who represents and takes responsibility on the organization
during the program) to continue representing it in the summit unless she
cannot attend for some reason.

By the way, do you want to attend the summit?  In that case, did you
attend it before?
