[IAEP] [SLOBS] Technical Service Request - Project: Sugar Network

Dear Sameer,

You probably missed this motion as we didn't get your vote.

Today, we are still in need of funding due to recurrent *spam attacks* we
have had during previous months, and given the fact that we are serving a
large group of active users during the local school year, I hope the board
can accept your late vote.

The motion presented by Lionel and Seconded by Samson states:

Motion: Urgent maintenance budget of 500$ for fixing spam attacks on Sugar
Network. Detail of the tasks to do are described in the Technical Service
Request provided by Laura. It's an one shot motion to avoid interruption of
service for Sugar Network users. Further investments on Sugar Network will
be correlated to discussion about long-term support of the platform.

So far, we got:

3 votes on favor (Ignacio, Samson and Lionel)
1 vote against (Walter)
1 abstain (Adam)
1 recuse (Laura)

I know you hope to bring your skills and expertise to contribute to the
strategic direction of Sugar the project, and its implementations, so I ask
for your support for this implementation serving +40,000 learners.

I hope for your positive vote.

Regards and blessings from Perú.

Laura
