Will we allow works in progress to apply for funding? </div><div><br></div><div>Should we address, in the text of the RFC, the possibility of conflicting proposals? Should we limit the number of proposals per person/organization to minimize conflicts?</div><div><br></div><div>> <span style="color:rgb(36,41,46);font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,"Segoe UI",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif,"Apple Color Emoji","Segoe UI Emoji";font-size:16px">Applicants will provide the amount to be funded. Proposals may be put together by one or several individuals (in the later case, to be determined if we can let the team have a "invoicing point of contact" and let them arrange how to dispatch it amongst members, or if each team member should ask for its part of funding). An applicant may submit proposals for several subjects.</span></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jun 2, 2021 at 6:02 AM Even Rouault <<a href="mailto:even.rouault@spatialys.com">even.rouault@spatialys.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi,<br>
