[Sugar-devel] [IAEP] [SLOBS] [SLOB] GSoC mentor stipend motion

[José Miguel García]

+1 para GSoC mentor stipend motion

Entiendo que la moción no establece honorarios para el mentor, pero si
permite que ellos lo utilicen para lo que consideren conveniente. De esta
manera puede mantener el carácter voluntario, atendiendo a su vez las
situaciones particulares de quienes lo hacen.

>> At today's Sugar Labs oversight board meeting [1], we discussed the
>> motion submitted by Sebastian Silva to allow the mentors participating in
>> Google Summer of Code to disperse the mentor stipend among themselves as
>> they see fit. I second the motion and bring it to you in an email vote.
>>
>> Background: Every year, Google provides mentoring organizations with a
>> stipend for the mentors. In our first year of participation in the program,
>> Sugar Labs mentors agreed to have the stipend directed to the Sugar Labs
>> general funds. We have followed the same procedure in subsequent years.
>> This year, however, several mentors asked if they could have access to the
>> stipends (which are allocated per student internship). We discussed this at
>> the meeting and agreed that it would be appropriate to offer these funds as
>> compensation and thanks to the mentors for their time and expertise (there
>> were no objections raised). We need to vote on this however, since the
>> funds are given to the mentoring organization, not the individual mentors.
>>
>> Members of the oversight board, please reply to this email solicitation
>> for a vote on the following motion. (Note that since I am a mentor, I think
>> I must recuse myself from the vote.)
>>
>> Motion: to allow the mentors participating in Google Summer of Code to
>> disperse the mentor stipend among themselves as they see fit.
