== Google Summer of Code 2018 Stipends ==
Normally the stipends can be requested by the mentors, but the mentors agreed not to request, but suggested that the money be used for marketing. See [[Oversight_Board/Decisions#2016-06-10|MOTION 2016-34]] and [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2018-December/056108.html mailing list post].
;PENDING MOTION 2019-01: Preserve the unpaid GSoC 2018 stipend for marketing purposes, and thank the mentors who suggested this.
We discussed;
* mentors made this agreement in private (Subject "GSoC mentor stipend" on October 11th),
* that there was no plan in the motion,
* that Conservancy is unlikely to let us spend any money without a plan,
* past undermining of decisions,
* need for consensus as a control for undermining,
* role of the liaison or project representative,
We did not come to an agreement. Next action is to write a marketing plan together.
