Also a Treasurer, "an ex officio, nonvoting officer taking care of
Sugar Labs' Finance.  Currently, this position is vacant." last edited
in 2011,

Referenced from
https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Oversight_Board#Additional_roles_within_Sugar_Labs

Shows how infrequently the Wiki is reviewed.

Your statement of purpose is highly restricted in that it only covers
preparation of financial reports, so can't really be given the public
term "Finance Manager" or "Treasurer".  These public terms have a much
wider definition that includes management of finances.

On the other hand, agreed motion 2017-13 clearly defines the new term
"Sugar Labs Financial Manager" without including management of
finances ... so my response has ended up being a criticism of the
agreed motion wording.  ;-)

[IAEP] Sugar Labs Finance Committee [Was Re: [SLOBS] Motion: To appoint Volunteer Laura Vargas as Sugar Labs Financial Manager [was Re: URGENT action needed]]

[Laura Vargas]

Dear SLOBS,

It has just come to my attention Sugar Labs has a Finance Committee.

Walter,

You are currently referenced as the Sugar Labs Finance Committee Liaison
 in the SL
committees wiki page, please confirm if such Committee is active and/or if
any of this information needs to be deprecated.

I any case I had prepared a Statement of Purpose for the Financial Manager
position and hopefully will serve as my application to the Sugar Labs
Finance Committee if it is still active;

*Statement of Purpose to act as Financial Manager [and/or] Sugar Labs
Finance Committe Member for Sugar Labs Global Project*
*by Laura Vargas*

My purpose is to provide Sugar Labs members the *service of keeping the
Sugar Labs financial reports published on two languages Spanish and English
on a timely manner on the Sugar Labs wiki  page*: https://wiki.sugarlabs.
org/go/Finance

I have estimated it will take me *~20 monthly hours* to perform such task,
taking into consideration that:

* I understand currently the Sugar Labs Project has only one (1) trusted
organization with an agreement in effect: non-profit Software Freedom
Conservancy in the United States.

* Software Freedom Conservancy's reports publication in the Sugar Labs wiki
are due since *February 2016  *(1
year and 2 quarters to catch up).

* To be able to allocate monthly time to the gardening of the Finance wiki
page, I would require Sugar Labs to sponsor the time for providing the
service and learning to use the commands to extract information from the
Ledger file, service that I propose to be provided in the form of a *Fellowship
with an Stipend *[and/or] office expenses, such as Internet connection,
maintenance to work equipment, etc. For reference see SLOB's Budget
allocation AGREED MOTION

2017-13.

I have an *Industrial Engineer* degree from the "Escuela Colombiana de
Ingeniería" and a masters degree in *English for International Business and
Finance*, from the "Universidad del Rosario" in Colombia. I also have a *Film
and TV Producer* degree from the "New York Film Academy" in the United
States thanks to the Ministry of Culture of Colombia and the Fulbright
Scholarship Program back in 2005. I gained large budget management skills
while working in the Film industry.

I have contributed to Free/Libre Software projects, specifically to Sugar
Labs since 2009. On the way I have lead many successful events, projects
and products, like Sugar Camp Lima and the resultant multi-native-languages
OS Image "Hexoquinasa" currently deployed among +40,000 learners on field.

I have many motivations to contribute to the successful execution of the
Sugar Labs project.

*Financial reports publication has become a critical task as currently
there are* no updated numbers .

Defined responsible parties for financial reports publication will benefit
largely the Project Leadership Committe and will hopefully activate more
collaboration in the development of quality "libre" software for children.

Regards and thanks in advance for your consideration.

So far we have 145 members and 4 candidates for 4 slots!

As per Committee meetings, Ignacio Rodriguez

officially in charge of all technical procedures for the 2017-2019 Election

My task for the upcoming days will be to document on the SL Wiki 2017-2109
Election's discussion Page all decisions and minutes of the Committee
related to the 2017-2019 Election. I (Laura) already started and will
continue to work on this during the week.

Other pending tasks you can help with:

01 Addition of new members to the Sugar Labs member's list. As far as I
know there is only one (1) request pending: Pericherla Seetarama Raju. *#ACTION
needed: *Samson and/or Ignacio please do confirm and update member's list
accordingly.



*Topics for discussion*

01 Ignacio,

Your resignation
to the
board has a direct impact to current elections as *it would open a fifth
seat for the Sugar Labs Oversight Board 2017-2019 period.  As long as you
don't make a formal declination of your board seat, the Membership and
Elections Committee will not consider the seat available for the 2017-2019
elections.*


02 Samson,

Your unfounded accusations and temperamental attacks are unacceptable.

What attacks are you talking about?


When you and/or Ignacio have failed to take actions to make decisions on a
timely manner, the decision has been up-streamed and taken with SLOBs
 like e.g. the
deadline for new members to participate in 2017-2019 elections. Otherwise
everything has been discussed and agreed properly.

I never accused you and i will never will. I also made up some points and
are valid. About the three new members, i told them to ask for membership
if they are register. To follow procedures.



03 James, Samson, Ignacio

As Committee member I will follow any course of action properly agreed by
Samson and Ignacio about the tasks derived from the addition of new members
to the Committee.

In the meanwhile I can keep Ibiam and Pericherla on copy. From Hirish I
don't even have the email.

Hirish will have to confirm and officially as to join the committee as you
suggested. I believe Pericherla has made that request.



Regards and blessings to all,

Re: [IAEP] Membership and Elections Committee sharing Member's List Update

[Caryl Bigenho]

Remember when the Sugar Labs election was handled by one very talented high 
school student who went by the handle, "FirefoxMan." He was truly impartial. No 
problems then. All was very smooth. Too bad he grew up and went to college!

[Lionel Laské]

Hi all,



I'm proud to announce the ninth version (0.9) of Sugarizer, a taste of
Sugar for any device.



http://sugarizer.org



For this summer Sugarizer version you could find not less than 8
new/improved activities:

   - Abacus activity: The famous Sugar Abacus activity: let's explore
   representations of numbers using different mechanical counting systems
   developed by the ancient Romans and Chinese.
   - Reflection activity: The port of the nice Sugar game designed to learn
   reflective symmetry.
   - ColorMyWorld activity: Explore the world and its countries. Fill
   countries with color you like or use the interactive mode to find location
   of countries on the offline map.
   - Jappy activity: Learn the Python programming language with this fun
   adaptation of the famous Pippy activity.
   - Blockrain activity: A tile-matching game directly inspired by the
   famous Tetris game.
   - QRCode activity: Use easily QR Code with this simple QR Code Generator
   and scanner.
   - XO Editor activity: An editor that display the rainbow of different
   color patterns for the XO buddy icon.
   - Updated TurtleJS activity: Latest version of the famous TurtleJS
   activity is now included in the Sugarizer package.



Other features in this version:

   - Integrated Tutorial:  You want to discover Sugarizer but you don't
   know Sugar. Sugarizer now integrate a tutorial to learn step by step the
   unique Sugar UI interface.
   - Journal Popup: A new popup to browse the Journal and integrate your
   better pictures into the Paint activity.
   - Better iOS support: Few improvements on the iOS support to better
   handle touch.



Sugarizer is already deployed in two schools: when for you ?



As usual, Sugarizer 0.9  is available on your browser [1] but also for your
Android, iOS and Windows device. Download it from : Google Play [2], Amazon
Store [3], Apple Store [4], Chrome Web Store [5], F-droid [6], Windows
Store [7] and if you don't like stores, you could also install it by
yourself using instructions on the Sugarizer website [8].

On Android, Sugarizer could also replace your launcher with Sugarizer OS
[9].



   Lionel.

(Abacus activity, Reflection activity, XOEditor activity), Charles Cossé
(ColorMyWorld activity), Sanchit Kapoor (Blockrain activity), Sebastian
