;AGREED MOTION 2017-16 Proposed by Walter Bender, seconded by Samson Goddy
 +
Motion: To answer the questions posed by the SFC regarding the xo-computer icon as follows:
 +
:(Q1) Why is the XO logo included in the sugar-artwork repo now -- and does the SLOBs want to keep it there?
 +
:(A1) The xo-computer icon has been part of Sugar since we first designed and built Sugar (beginning in 2006) and we would like to keep it there until such time as the design team decides there is a reason to change it.
 +
:(Q2) Assuming the SLOBs want to keep the XO logo in sugar-artwork: what outcome would the SLOBs *prefer* to see happen?  E.g.,
 +
:- Does Sugar want downstream users to be able to redistribute and modify Sugar's codebase with or without the XO trademark file included in the program? 
 +
:- Does the SLOBs want downstream users to be able to modify and redistribute the XO trademark image itself, or is that less important to Sugar?
 +
:(A2) Sugar Artwork, including the xo-computer icon, is currently licensed under the GPL and we would like our downstream users to be able to use all of our artwork under the terms of that license. As far as the use of any trademark image outside of the context of Sugar, we have no opinion.<br>

;FAILED MOTION 2017-12 Proposed by Walter Bender, seconded by Samson Goddy: Motion: Samson Goddy has been selected as a Sugar Labs representative to the Google Summer of Code mentor summit. He has requested a travel advance to cover the costs of his visa application. The advance, including wire fees comes to $US 627.05. This motion is to approve the travel advance. (As additional background, Google will be covering up to $2200 in travel expenses for two representatives to attend the summit. Since our other representative is local to the SF area, the bulk of that money would be available to cover Samson's travel, so the net impact on SL funds will be negligible.<br>
