($3300 - the SFC 10%) although we have yet to receive $1100 of the funds. We have also received $5400 in mentor "stipends" ($6000 - the SFC 10%). As you may recall, we are sending three people, Devin, Jaskirat, and Shrivank. Only Jaskirat is traveling internationally, so the best estimate is that the travel will come in on budget. As we did last year, we could apply some of the mentor stipend $$ to cover any overruns. (Note we have already approved a previous motion to approve a travel advance for Jaskirat to attend the Google Summer of Code mentor summit in October 2018. [1])<div><br></div><div>The SFC estimates a cost increase in Jaskirat's ticket of $400-$500 due to his intention to travel some while in the States (to visit some Sugar Labs people and his cousin in DC.) Jaskirat is paying for his domestic travel, but the round trip in and out of SF is apparently less expensive, hence the need for SLOB approval. IMHO, we should be extending opportunities for community members whenever possible.</div><div><br></div><div>Motion: To approve the additional cost associated with Jaskirat's ticket to and from the GSoC summit as calculated by the SFC. If for some reason the total budget for GSoC summit travel exceeds $3000, we can apply Jaskirat's and my share of the GSoC mentor stipend to cover the overrun.</div><div><br></div><div>This is somewhat timely as tickets need to be purchased.</div><div><br></div><div>regards.</div><div><br></div><div>-walter</div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2018-August/055603.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2018-August/055603.html</a><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>From: <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Brett Smith via RT</strong> <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:approvals@tix.sfconservancy.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">approvals@tix.sfconservancy.org</a>></span><br>Date: Tue, Sep 18, 2018 at 12:58 PM<br>Subject: Re: [<a href="http://sfconservancy.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">sfconservancy.org</a> #1845] Additional US flight expenditures for Jaskirat Singh<br>To: <<a href="mailto:holt@laptop.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">holt@laptop.org</a>><br>Cc: <<a href="mailto:sugar@sfconservancy.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">sugar@sfconservancy.org</a>><br></div><br><br> <div class="m_1446080887952142627m_2688548859116845519m_-7147290828469583770m_7150184293189627845gmail-m_6296641633575472320markdown-here-wrapper"> <p style="margin:1.2em 0px">On 09/18/2018 12:46 PM, Adam Holt via RT wrote:</p> <p style="margin:1.2em 0px"></p> <div class="m_1446080887952142627m_2688548859116845519m_-7147290828469583770m_7150184293189627845gmail-m_6296641633575472320markdown-here-exclude"> <p></p> <blockquote type="cite"><br> <div dir="ltr"> <div dir="ltr"> <div class="gmail_extra">On Tue, Sep 18, 2018 at 12:21 PM, Brett Smith via RT <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:approvals@tix.sfconservancy.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">approvals@tix.sfconservancy.org</a>></span> wrote:<br> <div class="gmail_quote"> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Adam and team,<br> <br> Jaskirat Singh is planning additional travel in the US after the GSoC mentor summit.
