Re: [Sugar-devel] [SLOB] Motion (2 of 2) Sugar Labs donation

2016-06-04 Thread Tony Anderson

Dave,

Simply in repetition, passing a motion is not a goal.

The motion is:

Motion: To request a membership donation from each currently active 
Sugar Labs Member to be allocated to the General Fund for the calendar 
year of 2016, and a public statement about how they use Sugar and why 
they are involved in Sugar Labs to post on the website; there is no 
penalty for not paying a membership or not providing a statement; by 
default members who donate will be kept private, and requested to opt-in 
to be recognised. The donation requested will be $12 USD from members 
who self-identify as low-income (such as students); $36 USD from general 
members; $120 from members who can opt-in to be placed prominently on 
the website; and $600 from members who can (privately if they wish) 
submit a release codename, subject to SLOB approval.


Perhaps something like the following:

Motion: Sugar Labs will undertake a fund raising drive. Arrangements 
will be made to enable on-line contributions by PayPal, debit or credit 
card or other
means. Once the means to make contributions is in place, the Financial 
Manager will intiate and lead the drive. The Sugar Labs web site will 
show progress

in donations toward the goal.

I have no problem with a request for donation with a goal for the
total amount needed for some goal (e.g. $4000 for operating
expenses).


Cool!

We need a simple on-line method for donations. Sending a letter
with a check to the Software Conservancy seems a bit behind
current practice.


I agree, but the motion says nothing about how donations will be made, 
so that should not prevent the motion from passing.

Fortunately no benefits in the motion are tangible, and no transactions are
mandatory.

Adam, I don't understand your assertion at all!

I imagine that when someone sends $12 via PayPal, then Paypal automatically
takes its fee and deposits the remainder in the Conservancy account; then
Conservancy is obliged to perform the light and simple task of transferring
10% of that to their account and 90% to their SL ear-marked account, which
they do with ledger-cli, which they are familiar with. I imagine that
Conservancy staff are familiar with performing this task on a weekly basis,
if not more frequently. I do not think this will be a burden. Have any
Conservancy staff expressed that this will be a burden? If it was a burden,
they are earning their 10%, so I would see no reason to not to place that
burden on them, if there was one, which there isn't.

Please list all the management tasks you think are associated with a $12
donation to be performed by anyone.

I hope we all work together to find a way to compromise, but in any case my
opinion is already well-known, as stated a month ago:

Mentors/tutors/teachers are insufficiently recognized, just like the
Mentoring organization is insufficiently recognized.

My personal belief is that *both* need to be recognized far more, likely
starting equally with a 50/50 split or some such/similar distribution of
funds, inspired by Lionel Laske's thoughtful articulation of the many
social infrastructure / accounting infrastructure / mentoring
infrastructure / constructionist infrastructure investments OLPC France has
very successfully achieved.  Among many other organizational
infrastructures (technology and non-technology community tools)
backstopping the lives of volunteer-community-hackers-of-all-kind
increasingly far easier, as we can do too!  Underlying a much stronger
future for all~

Re: [Sugar-devel] [SLOB] Motion (2 of 2) Sugar Labs donation

2016-06-04 Thread Adam Holt
As this is a very thoughtful proposal, I contacted SFConservancy's general
counsel to verify it is legal given 501(c)3 non-profit laws can be strict,
and he emphasized 2 things:

(1) no tangible benefits may be offered in return for a donation (otherwise
it is not a donation, by law!)

(2) if such transactions were ever to become quasi-mandatory (similar to
membership dues in many other organizations) he would strongly prefer we
not use the word "Member" and rather use terminology like "Patron"
(commonly-used word in charitable circles, and doesn't imply explicit
benefits), "Lab Assistants," or "Sugar Labs Official Patrons" (SLOPs, not
my choice!), or "Sweet Teeth," etc, with a fun logo (that fits in with the
existing "Sugar Labs" brand).

Finally while I'm not at all against this very thoughtful proposal going
forward increasingly seriously, there is a *Ton* of overhead to managing
$12 donations, and I'm wondering how exactly this will be managed?  So if a
competent Donations/Financial Manager (or fully-outsourced mechanism
perhaps?) is tightly drawn up, that does not place burdensome obligations
on SFC and other magical / non-existent financial/operations people we've
simply not identified yet, then I personally would be much more likely to
vote for such a proposal -- if it based on substance rather than wishful
thinking.

In short: if legit, clean operational mechanics have (IN FACT) been
carefully designed.  Or are on a road to come together and inspire the
confidence of all.  Rather than (worst case!) punting management of
microdonations / microreporting / micro-thank-you-letters (etc) to SFC's
forthcoming the PayPal donation button they are trying to create for Sugar
Labs in the coming weeks hopefully, which is Very Far from a complete
answer.  Possibly someone out there knows a fully managed/appropriate
solution similar to *gofundme.com * that reduces
operational complexity, rather than increasing operational complexity in
all our lives?

Admin (for example in 2016, Walter or Lionel) to pay a stipend to a 
mentor, their share of the stipend amount will be disbursed without

the total awarded for the GSoC slot by Google, minus 10% (as all Sugar

Hi, Walter

I hate to be a 'stick in the mud', but I have concerns about this 
motion. If the donation is voluntary, much of the verbiage is not 
needed. I am particularly
concerned about asking for a donation and that the donor justify the 
amount of the donation based on income. I have no problem with a request 
for
donation with a goal for the total amount needed for some goal (e.g. 
$4000 for operating expenses).


We need a simple on-line method for donations. Sending a letter with a
