Vote: Apple Developer Renewal 2023
by Jonathan Neuhauser 04 Jun '24

04 Jun '24

Dear all, it's this time of the year again! Background: ----------- René de Hesselle (RdH) has been preparing our OSX builds for a while, to do that he needs to be able to sign them with an Apple Developer Account. We have reimbursed him last year for this account so that he could continue to sign builds for Inkscape. This is to renew that account so he can continue to sign OSX builds. Proposal: --------- Reimburse RdH for the membership renewal expenses for Apple's developer program. This is estimated to cost 99€. Votes: ------ a. Reimburse RdH for the program b. No, cease participation in Apple's Developer Program c. Other: ________ Best regards, Jonathan

Request for comments: Inkscape Grants
by Jonathan Neuhauser 11 Dec '23

Dear fellow PLC members, I'd like to get our grants program off the ground. After some initial discussion with Pono, targeted donations are off the table for now, which fortunately makes the evaluation process easier and reduces the administrative (intial and runtime) overhead significantly. (And I'm somewhat opposed to them in general by now for that reason). This draft is now very much in line with what Alexandre Prokoudine has researched for the FreeCad Project Association [1], they are also looking into / setting up a grants system. (That's to say my proposal is not an outlier in the FOSS world.) I'm now looking for comments from the PLC, so we can hopefully move this over the finish line with the SFC very soon. This is not a vote, but a request for comments; please send me your feedback whenever you have time. https://office.inkscape.org/nextcloud/index.php/s/65kwEg2DTeLcbKJ Thanks in advance, Jonathan (I know that this depends on the teams policy, and I'm still waiting for SFC feedback on that one too.)
