Former admin here.
When I became admin in 2012, mentors money was added to OSGeo incomes.
I started a discussion with the Board and current mentors about it, and
the agreed outcome was that the mentors' money should specifically be
allocated for code sprint support. (See budgets from 2013 onwards,

Vicky, why are you saying that?
Mentors money have been so far used as was agreed upon by mentors some
years ago, that is, to donate them to osgeo. Any different proposal should
be agreed upon by all active mentors serving the current year.
I have proposed in two mailing lists to come up with a com

Trying to hunt through my email, it has been a long time since I did GSOC.
I think it was $500 to OSGeo for each project mentored (really not sure if

Really, that is news to me. I never knew we had that option. I think we
would have liked to fund some additional development for the project or

Mentors can decide what to do with the money they earn through the GSOC
program; in the past many mentors have accepted the t-shirt and donated the

I think at the least we might want to consider giving that money or some
of it back to the project that did the mentoring and let them decide how
to use it with some guidelines on use. OSGeo as the sponsoring
organization should probably get some of it to defray effort of organizing.

Vicky, all,
The mentor mailing list is private because the discussion about students
evaluations happens there, and I'm surprised that you don't know the reason
why it should be private. Anyhow, I suggested that you bring public this
discussion because this is something that must be completely tra
I believe that GSoC people should make a proposal to be discussed at board
level, of course hints from everyone is welcome...

Dear Vicky,
Before going into your question; decisions to spend money on codesprints or
student conference attendance has not been part of the Marketing Committee
remit.
Perhaps the Board can decide on the what/where/how of this type of support?
