As my original email noted, these grants make us a more inclusive organization than without them. We have GSOC which has dispensed approximately 60,000 dollars to our project that is purely limited to one area: programming. Is that really being inclusive when less than half of our project only receives funding and support? These grants offers money to areas that don't receive any financial support: Art and high quality user made content. Last years money for art produced pretty substantial results from Kitty and TSI, which we would have not otherwise obtained. The third type of grant is aimed at individuals who have thus far not been adequately represented among our developers. It makes us a more inclusive organization overall when you think about it.
