How many votes would it take to change the tagline of IAEP to “It’s An Education Project (not a travel agency!)”? Martin (Not directed at Caryl personally - this whole thread comes off as pretty far from SL’s mission to this observer. It should be internal IMHO.) > On 24 Sep 2017, at 23:39, Ca

Ed and I would love to host Samson in LA for a couple of days between Google and Boston. Kayak is showing the one way ticket at $111 at the time he can fly (evening). We will get that ticket for him if the rest of his trip is approved. Caryl Sent from my iPhone On Sep 24, 2017, at 8:15 PM, Adam

I'm in agreement with Chris Leonard on this. Translators have done a great job leading up to the new release of Sugar, and they should be invited to join Sugar Labs. http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/localization/2017-September/003952.html is one such post which could have been an invitation if o

-1 for this motion. Participation to the GSoC Summit is already a privilege. It's fair that Samson as a mentor could have opportunity to attend to it. I don't see any advantage for SugarLabs on the Samson side trip, so there is no reason for SugarLabs to pay for it. Lionel. 2017-09-24
