Thank you, that is way better. > Does anyone have any additional suggestions for the budget section or any > other part of the small events page? Two more things I noticed: * There is no notion of timeframe. It would be good to set (reasonable) expectations without necessarily making them a hard requirement. * It says “Total budget requested in USD” but the board agreed that foundation members shouldn’t have to take the hit for fluctuations in conversion rates, and other currencies are supported by the tools we use for reimbursement. Therefore the approved amount should be in the currency preferred by the requester.
