According to section 3b ibid, I'm creating | these votes. | | Vote 1: Adam Belis is requesting a Microsoft Surface Pro 9 for | testing | purposes, a laptop / tablet with stylus. Estimated cost: 1900 USD | (https://lists.inkscape.org/hyperkitty/list/inkscape-board@lists.inkscape.org...) | | Vote 2: Vaibhav Malik is requesting a Macbook Air for working on | cross-platform issues in Inkscape, such as those that came up during | the | GTK4 migration. Estimated cost: 1860 USD | (https://lists.inkscape.org/hyperkitty/list/inkscape-board@lists.inkscape.org...) | | Vote 3: Tavmjong Bah is requesting a Mac Mini + Apple-specific | keybord | in order to work on cross-platorm issues in GTK. Estimated cost: 1377 | USD. | (https://lists.inkscape.org/hyperkitty/list/inkscape-board@lists.inkscape.org...) | | Have a look at the original emails for further justifications. | | Basis for the decision is Section 3c of the Hardware policy: | | > Requests should be approved if the contributor is a long standing | member of the community with a good reputation, the hardware request | is | reasonable and can be seen to be useful to the project and its | priorities and that the cost of the hardware is affordable and within | other constraints for the project’s budget. | | With this vote, we are approving the budgets, and I've added a 10% | safety margin for each request. The SFC is responsible for how this | is | actually done, if they buy the hardware directly or reimburse the | contributor. | | | ===== VOTES ===== | | ==== Vote 1: Approve the hardware request by Adam Belis ==== | | a) Approve the hardware request by Adam Belis under the Contributor | Hardware Policy, up to a total budget of USD 2090. | | b) Don't approve the hardware request. | | ==== Vote 2: Approve the hardware request by Vaibhav Mailk ==== | | a) Approve the hardware request by Vaibhav Malik under the | Contributor | Hardware Policy, up to a total budget of USD 2050. | | b) Don't approve the hardware request. | | ==== Vote 3: Approve the hardware request by Tavmjong Bah ==== | | a) Approve the hardware request by Tavmjong Bah under the Contributor | Hardware Policy, up to a total budget of USD 1520. | | b) Don't approve the hardware request. | | | Thanks in advance, | | Jonathan | | | | | _______________________________________________ | Inkscape Board of Directors mailing list -- | inkscape-board@lists.inkscape.org | To unsubscribe send an email to | inkscape-board-leave@lists.inkscape.org |
