[GRASS-PSC] First draft of call for student grants

[Veronica Andreo]

This is great Moritz! Thanks for taking the lead on this and drafting the
call!

Here are my comments/questions:
- *"be eligible to work in the country in which they reside" --> *maybe
this is related to them having a tax number or bank account, no idea.
Questions might be if the money goes directly from OSGeo to the student,
won't OSGeo need an invoice? If we pay directly from our bank account, do
we need it?
- The agreement of a GRASS GIS core developer to mentor the student's work
--> Maybe no need to be core, perhaps no need to be dev at all if the
student proposes to create educational material. In any case, some sort of
mentor would be desired in my opinion.
- In the nature of the grant section, should we set a maximum duration, eg.
2 months or so?
- In the how to apply section: email with proof of eligibility should be
sent to some of us privately I think for data privacy reasons (?). Would be
nice to ask them to introduce themselves to the community too, no? Probably
once accepted.
- Approval: 2 weeks sound better to me
- Final report: the report in the wiki seems fine to me, could also be the
trac wiki where all the GSoC reports live too. The final report could be
sent to grass-dev and psc mailing lists.
