Inkscape Summit at Rennes LGM: Vote
Committee members, your response is required:
a) Approve this proposal. b) Disapprove this proposal. c) Change this proposal.
Background:
Inkscape has traditionally held a gathering in conjunction with LGM (Libre Graphics Meeting). It's been a great success, not only to direct development of Inkscape, but also to the Inkscape community. We plan on doing the same for this years event (May 9-12th in Rennes, France).
In order to be more inclusive of the Inkscape community, the event will be named "Inkscape Summit".** All Inkscape community members are welcome to attend.
This proposal is to allocate funds to support Inkscape community members with travel expenses to, from, and during the event (transportation, accommodation, meals, misc. expenses), including attending LGM. Support will be offered to all active community members. Members can ask for support by contacting Tavmjong (the event organizer) with a short statement listing their contributions to Inkscape in the past year and with what they plan on working on during the summit.**
In the past we've offered up to $2000 per person. I would propose increasing that to $2500 given the amount of inflation over the past few years. Most attendees will be coming from the European area so average travel costs should be lower.
See: https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Inkscape_Summit_2024_Rennes
Proposal:
Allocate funds to support travel to an Inkscape Summit and to LGM. Up to $2500 will be available to each participant, subject to the SFC travel policy. The maximum total amount being limited to $25000 without further PLC approval.
Allocate $500 for an Inkscape dinner for Inkscape community members and their guests.
Allocate $200 for snacks during the Inkscape Summit.
Authorize Tavmjong to approve applications for travel support.
Notes:
Meeting location to be confirmed with Cedric.
** After discussion with developers and Vectors about event name and travel support eligibility.
I vote a)
with a note.
The proposal is unbounded? In the extremely unlikely event that all 219 eligible people applied, we'd spend $548k 😉️
Best Regards, Martin Owens

I also vote a), and imo Martin‘s concern can be resolved by
The maximum total amount being limited to $25000 without further PLC approval.
I personally consider it unlikely that this amount will be exceeded.

Thanks Jonathan,
This is my misreading. I read 2500 and assumed to applied to one person and not the whole event. My vote is unchanged.
Martin,
I vote A
