Hi Chris, During the last DebConf team meeting[1], it was agreed that the bursaries budget should be increased by 15k USD (allowing us to grant bursaries to ~15 more people by current numbers[2]).
[1] https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf17/Meetings/2017-06-12 [2] https://lists.debconf.org/lurker/message/20170607.114628.31230a8a.en.html It's a substantial budget modification, but it's covered in part by new sponsors coming in, as well as income from self-paying attendees that wasn't taken into account in the initial approved budget (oops). Once you give the thumbs-up I'll be able to approve the grant for the higher ranked bursary applicants. Thanks, -- Nicolas Dandrimont But what can you do with it? -- ubiquitous cry from Linux-user partner. (Submitted by Andy Pearce, a...@hpopd.pwd.hp.com)
