[Qgis-psc] Grant voting 2021 closed

Tue May 4 09:52:02 PDT 2021

Hi Anita,

I just checked the numbers in the Google Docs document (vote counts and
ranking). The formulas/results look good to me.

As to the other topic: as discussed in the PSC meeting today, we need to be
conservative, because there are still 2 unpaid grants from 2020 that also
total to 15k €, and where we hope that they can be finished and paid. So,
we should opt to accept only the ones that fit into the grant budget.

So please go ahead and inform the people who submitted the proposals about
which ones where accepted and which not.

Thanks and greetings,

Andreas
