Five free minutes?

Hi. I just got a "Welcome to Dolby.io" E-mail that reminded me that I have five free minutes with my sign-up. Is that enough to make a Hackathon entry? Or am I supposed to perform an additional step to request more time for the Hackathon? If so, what is it?

    Robert,
    New users that sign up are automatically enrolled in the free trial plan, which includes 30,000 free minutes credit for the Communications APIs --the apis we intend you use for this hackathon.

    We expect that amount to more than enough credits to do the hackathon entry. The free trial is designed to allow developers to trial the apis in ample fashion without having to enter in a credit card. Was this an existing account, or did you change your subscription level or enter a credit card? The free trial account is what we suggest using for this event. After the hackathon, if the project is continuing, and a developer has an app fully ready for production, they can change their subscription for a more appropriate plan, each with its own pricing tier.

    Thanks Dan. I misread the E-mail. It said there were "free minutes", not "five minutes".
