Re: [IAEP] [SLOB] another motion (Quispe trip to Translation Summit)

I would note that, as requested, Edgar provided a brief write-up of
the event afterwards (in Spanish), which I have
Google-assisted-translated and will be posting (in both Spanish and
English) on the blog that I'm setting up for reporting on Translation
Community Manager activities.

Asking funded travelers for a post-travel write-up is a practice that
I think Sugar Labs SLOB should consider in all travel-funding
requests.  It is a very common practice in science-related businesses,
when someone is sent to a conference on company time.  This practice
provides a further return on investment.  Not only are your ideas
shared with the audience at the destination by the traveler, but the
conference's ideas are reported back to the community providing the
funding.

[IAEP] [SLOB] another motion (Quispe trip to Translation Summit)

[Walter Bender]

I realize that we never actually had a formal motion for this as we got
side-tracked by the i18n manager discussion (See [1]).

Background: Edgar Quispe had requested funds to attend the Traducción e
interpretación en las lenguas originarias del Perú meeting in Lima. The
total cost of the trip was expected to be ~$200. In fact it came to
$168.88. The purpose of the visit was for Edgar to share his experience
with Aymara i18n for Sugar Labs with speakers of other indigenous languages
in the region. Note that this was pre-approved by Chris Leonard and Walter
Bender as appropriate and relevant to our i18n efforts under the Trip
Advisor grant and brought up for discussion at the 1 April SLOB meeting.
Edgar's report is at [2].

Motion: to reimburse Edgar Quispe for expenses incurred representing Sugar
Labs at the Traducción e interpretación en las lenguas originarias del Perú
meeting in Lima. The cost is $168.88.

I'm submitting tonight to Conservancy internal approval process Edgar
Quispe Chambi's reimbursement request of US$161.88.

However, I am unable to find SLOBs approval, so the reimbursement may be
rejected because of this.  The information I have is:

I assume based on that statements and the one below that at sometime
between March 18th and April 15th, there was a formal SLOBs approval.
Can someone send that along, please?  A URL link to the SLOBs minutes
where it was approved are fine.
