Finances

We are putting all of the finances in the wiki as per Oversight_Board/Finances/2010-10. We agreed to dedicate a meeting to reviewing our financial processes and strategies; also a meeting to discuss our marketing and fund-raising strategies.

What is a SL project?, team?, lab?

We discussed and voted on mchua's motion

Oversight Board/Project Motion

Discussion:

• One benefit of being a project (or team or lab) is the possibility of Sugar Labs engaging in fund raising.
• It was pointed out that these decisions could be handed off to the Marketing Team and recommended that the Oversight Board divest itself of so much centralized control.
• Ir was pointed out that infrastructure support could be offered informally, irrespective of any Oversight Board decisions.

Motion passes: 5 in favor 2 opposed
