Assuming the person fulfils the criteria from the original vote, and
there is room in the budget, there's no need for an additional vote.

There should be room in the budget. I'll leave it to Bryce to decide if
we need a formal vote. I'll go ahead and extend an invitation.

Any other opinions?

I would like to invite Olaf Bjarnanson who helped Mark J recently with
keyboard stuff (Mark is already coming).

Yes, $13,100 total has been budgeted, and there is still $11,600 in the
hackfest account (we've received no further donations to the hackfest
fund since June last year).

I like this idea. Marc J. would be an obvious candidate.

[Inkscape-board] Hackfest budget etc.

2016-03-14 Thread Tavmjong Bah


Hi,

So far we have allocate $9000 for travel expense for the hackfest,
$3000 for travel to LGM, $1300 for the venue (includes lunches,
snacks). $600 for Hackfest dinner. The actual amount for travel should
be considerably less (for example, it include $2000 for Alex who is
local).

See: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Hackfest2016_Attendees

I believe we allocated $7500 for the hackfest + $5000 for LGM + $600
for the dinner. At the end of 2015 we had $11,600 in the hackfest
"account". Bryce, can you confirm these numbers?

It has been suggested to me that we selectively invite recently new
active participants in the Inkscape community who would not otherwise
qualify for travel assistance. I like this idea as it would help to
encourage new participants to keep contributing. I would propose asking
the Inkscape community to nominate people for a $500 special
invitation.
