Re: [Sugar-devel] [SLOBS] [SLOB] another motion (Quispe trip to Translation Summit)

Hi, Adam I believe this case has been exhaustively documented. It apparently transpired before the current SLOBS was in place. It transpired before Chris became our Translation Community Manager. My understanding is that the expenditure was approved by persons authorized to do so at the time.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [SLOBS] [SLOB] another motion (Quispe trip to Translation Summit)

FWIW, while I agree that retroactively approving of funds is not ideal, this particular case is a matter of formal approval of what was already approved. SLOB gave me authority to make these sorts of decisions for the Trip Advisor grant several times now and I believe it is within Chris's discretio

Hi, Dave As I understand it, what you are trying to do is make github the place where Sugar activities are kept. Currently, ASLO provides for upload of an activity (new or new version) as an xo bundle from the user's file system. What would be needed is a way to release an xo bundle from the g

Hi, Dave I think both motions need further explanation. In the case of the GSOC stipend, I assume the total amount is transferred to SugarLabs. That amount is based on the number of slots (6) and not on the number of mentors. The amount is fixed per slot ($500). So SFC would take $250 and Sug
