• Proposal to make GSoC mentor payments to the mentors.

Discussion

laboratoriosazucar.org

Dave Crossfield took care of this unilaterally. It was suggested that the lead of the infrastructure team could have handled this without the need for SLOB intervention.

Finance Manager position

It was agreed that we need more discussion on Motion 1 (create a paid position) and Motion 2 (unilateral spending by the finance manager). We agreed that Motions 3 and 4 were ready for an email vote.

Yoruba

We discussed this and will proceed with an email vote.

GPLv3

We discussed this and will proceed with an email vote. (Walter will include a summary of the rationale for the change.)

GSoC mentor payments

It was viewed favorably in the discussion. We will proceed with an email vote.

Google RISE

It was suggested that local deployments apply; Adam agreed to discuss with Tony at the Conservancy how Sugar Labs might sponsor the work of local deployments that are not non-profit entities (a requirement of the grant).

Motion to adopt the Vision proposal

We did not discuss this topic.
