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
