I consider the above conditions fulfilled and have started applying.

Unfortunately, Google requires there are at least two org-admins for an
organization.  We need to an additional admin by 6pm CET, which is in a
little over 6 hours.  So, who would like to do this with me?  (We can
have up to five :-).

Since I have started this thread, I expect to do most of the
org-admining, so any additional admin should not have that much work
with it.  But they apparently want a back-up as they want a reply to any
inquiry they might have within 36 hours.

My apologies for finding out this late but I did go through various
documents about the program and the requirement was not listed there, it
only popped up half-way through the application.
