It was pointed out to me that my mail could have been misread in a number of ways. nothing in my message is meant to alter the delegations currently in place. Rather, my desire is to further empower our delegated teams.
If there are going to be any grants to fund work for some of our teams, the teams need to eagerly support the idea and have appropriate involvement in the process. The obvious and simplest way is for the team wanting to issue a grant to be the one running the experiment. There are other options that may make sense. For example if someone who had experience with grants or contracting wanted to put together the experiment that could be fine. But it would need to be as a resource for the teams that the teams saw as such, not antagonistic to our great volunteers. --Sam
