Our next HF is approaching, and I think time is ripe to take a clear<br>
decision about what to refund to whom.<br>
My idea (which we have mostly followed until now):<br>
<br>
* food and refreshments should be free for all participants<br>
* flights and hotel should be covered for core team only<br>
* uncertain about the dinner(s) out - whether to offer them to<br>
everybody, or only to core team<br>
* everybody is encouraged to support the HF by paying they own expenses,<br>
if they have their own funding.<br>
<br>
The weak point is how to define core team: PSC+committers? Also<br>
documentors? Also infrastructure maintainer? Anyone who contributed at<br>
least x lines of code? Should we rely on ad hoc application, one per<br>
each HF, or have a list of those who can be reimbursed, with a formal<br>
(even if very simple) procedure for being admitted?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">The advantage of a short application for each HF is that we would have a better estimate of how many people will receive refunds while we would not have in case of a list where some people might not come or not need support at one time or another.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Best wishes,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Anita</div></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div></div><br></div></div>
