<pre wrap="">Dear Board,
I just wanted to follow up on this and inform you about the outcome. For
FOSDEM 2018, 2 students applied to the grant. The conveners assigned the
grant to one student. Meanwhile the other student withdrew his submission.
After that, also the student that had been assigned the grant had to
withdraw the submission for personal reason. Eventually the grant was not
assigned. I assume we can consider this amount (500USD) to sum up to the 3k
budget that we have been assigned, and assign the grant to another GSoC
student when the request comes for another event?
Thanks

For a limit of how many total grants?
It would be 1 grant for 1 student
I see its already been added to the board meeting agenda, that’s good.
One thing that was a problem at FOSS4G2017 was trying to provide
funding for multiple students, many wanted cash, which, while problematic,
was doable at foss4g. I won’t be at FOSDEM to do this. Is it possible for
OSGeo to fund the housing at FOSDEM directly for however many? Something to
consider.
We can just set the conditions for reimbursement beforehand and they
have to accept them.
Thanks,
Mike
