It seems that there is some support of the idea of offering at least a portion of the GSoC stipend to mentors who need/request the funds, but the form of the current motion, putting the authority into the hands of the mentors themselves does not have adequate support. Perhaps someone can craft a motion that would be better received by the oversight board.</div></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div><div>I submit the following motion draft for comments, based on Sebastian's text, which I believe expresses Tony's sentiment, and pays a courtesy to Lionel's sentiment.
