[REFERENDUM] Participation in Outreachy and authorization for fundraising
A majority vote of the current board members is required for the following matter.
Proposal: ---------
Shall Inkscape participate in the Outreachy internship program, and allow the earmarking of donations for funding one or more Outreachy slots?
- [ ] a. Yes, participate in Outreachy and allow collection of donations to fund one or more internship slots. - [ ] b. No, do not participate in Outreachy at this time. - [ ] c. Other ___________________
Votes: ------
| Board Member | 1. | | -------------------- |:--:| | Bryce Harrington | | | Josh Andler | | | Tavmjong Bah | | | Ted Gould | | | Martin Owens | | | Marc Jeanmougin | | | Chris Rogers | |
Resolution: -----------
Background: -----------
At the Boston hackfest Máirín Duffy suggested Inkscape participate in the Outreachy internship program, and offered to help with organizing and fundraising for it. We discussed it in detail at the board meetings, but I don't think we formally voted on it. Conservancy requires a formal vote for moving forward with collection of donations for us.
One way Outreachy appears to differ from the GSoC program is that funding must be arranged by the mentoring organization. Máirín believes that adequate external funding can be secured for Inkscape, to cover at least one student. With the Inkscape Committee's approval, Conservancy will create a Donate button to receive and earmark funds to be used for the Outreachy slot.
At this time it is assumed the cost of the Outreachy participation will be covered entirely by the earmarked donations. If it becomes desireable in the future for Inkscape to cover portions of the internship cost, a separate vote will be done.
I vote a.
