- mai is in favor of buying up to 2 ladders
- mai submits ladder purchace request via our incredible web form peoplesopen.net/buystuff
Discussion: Travel and Conference Reg Fees Reimbursements
- jenny: Maybe we can have some limit for domestic travel vs. international travel for conference (eg up to $200, up to $500)
- this summer for instance - dweb summit registration fees, ournetworks travel
- mai: Ideally we'd approve it before the event. What if anyone who wants to be reimbursed for something puts in a request into peoplesopen.net/buystuff?
- Proposal to present at the general meeting tonight —
- For expenses spent on attending conferences to represent Sudo Mesh, they must request beforehand to get approval
- Anyone who wants to be reimbursed for their discounted DWeb summit reg fees is approved
- Anyone who traveled to represent Sudo Mesh at conferences during Summer 2018 can request a stipend/reimbursement of up to $200 for domestic trips and $500 for international trips while still subject to approval from Accounting WG and submission of receipts
Reviewing accounting wg procedure
- From June 5th proposal https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/5_June_2018:
- Up to $500 each Accounting WG member can spend on the card without approval, with their discretion. Above $500, you need pre-approval from Accounting WG, above $2000 we need approval from 5 signatures/email consent from board members
- Ben: need to go through this procedure for the air fibers
- Jenny: both are under 2k actually
- Benny: nice
