I guess I viewed it as:
If the mentor chose to take the money for him/herself we wouldn't have the 10% given to the Conservancy taken out (so the mentor got $450).
If the mentor decided to leave the money for Inkscape then 10% would go to the Conservancy.
Does that align with what you're thinking?
The vote we held was whether the 10% should be withheld at all if the mentor chooses to keep it. So, in that case the mentor would be getting $500, not $450.
So, what I'm thinking is we either need to UNvote that decision, or push back on SFC to not take 10% from mentor payments unless they agree to it.
For me, I looked at that as the pass through vs. earmarked case. In the case where the mentor is taking the funds effectively Inkscape is being a pass through. When the funds actually hit our account is when it's earmarked.
