Hello,
as a follow-up to the previous discussion, I'd like to ask the board to
vote on changes to our travel policy. I actually have two requests, and
ask to vote on them together.
The first one is adding the wish for travel reports. I propose the
following wording:
"To illustrate the diversity of the community, and all the projects and
events we engage with and participate in, the board strongly encourages
everyone applying for a travel refund to send in a short written report
along with their refund request to treasu...@documentfoundation.org
A few sentences about the event and your general impression would be
wonderful, and ideally you send it in under the Creative Commons
Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License
<http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/>, so we can use it in
our annual report. Feel free to also blog about your impressions and
send us a link - in fact, this would be even better, to spread the word
already during the year!
Thank you very much for your support, and to everyone who takes the
time to send in travel reports about their trip!"
The second one is a change to the per-diem rate, to reflect binding
changes in German tax law. The new wording for the "out of town meals"
part should be:
"Members traveling on behalf of TDF are reimbursed a per diem for their
meal expenses. The following rates apply for travels to Germany:
* single day trip
** 0 up to 8 hours: no per diem refunded
** more than 8 and up to 24 hours: 12€
* multiple day trip, only with overnight stay
** arrival day, independent from travel duration: 12 €
** departure day, independent from travel duration: 12 €
** every additional day: 24 € per day
The detailed regulations, sums, possible limitations and deductions on
the per diem vary from your travel destination, whether meals are
provided or how they are included in the hotel's invoice, and a couple
of other parameters.
If you plan to ask for a per diem refund, we strongly recommend asking
the treasurer before your trip, to get the current details for your
destination."
Thanks for considering,
Florian
