We have $40,000 budgetted for the travel committee, and that is in the Events line. The other additional one in there is $3k for "GNOME events" which covers things like release party reimburements, or other small events which are run. Note, this 40k doesn't cover GUADEC travel as I understand it, that falls under the GUADEC budget line. > PS: Other than that, I noticed: > * Limit for flights is >$1,650 in the summary but >$1800 in the text I believe that this is as it's for 1650 for the flight portion, and 1800 total. The actual change that got introduced at conservancy is: https://k.sfconservancy.org/policies/changeset/9569a5bbae38cffa181caa9d f9cd91fcd3169e8e > * Text says "Conservancy" (instead of Foundation?) in one place Nice catch, thanks! As a bit of background, we're basically copying Conservancy's travel policy here. They've done the research on what's legal for a 501(c)(3) to do, and have sensible limits in place. It saves us rolling our own as well.
