III) "Request for Change"

From A to G + 3 - openSUSE contributors can agree, desagree or don't mind.

A) As a change, I would appreciate to see Ancor - If he is OK AND SUSE is OK - becoming the "TSP team leader" (with a monthly paid hours to assure the quality of the TSP - timing & communication) :

agree desagree don't mind

B) As a change, I suggest to "add" two "optional resources supervisors" (for example 1 SUSE and 1 openSUSE, as Sarah and Sleepwalker, or any other, per, Frédéric, Christopher ...) - who could be asked to give their opinion in case the team is not sure to take the fair decision.

C ) As a change, I request TSP up to 100 % for openSUSE volonteers (*) working 100 % of the "event time" (as the video team, as OSC organizers, as mini-summits, as booths (in any open event), as any openSUSE talk done (in an open event)

(*) I do not know if SUSE employees can be concerned by TSP or not - but as far as they do 100 % work on their holliday time - of course the are (logically) integrated in this change request.

D ) As a change, I request TSP up to 80 % for openSUSE volonteers working minimum 50 % of the "event time" (as helping for booth, taking pictures, writing articles, welcoming ppl etc.)

E) As a change, I request TSP maximum 30 % for openSUSE volonteers who are coming just to see conferences, to share fun and to see friends and do not have ministers salary - meaning : helping them (when without the TSP, they cannot come) (as helping for booth, taking pictures, writing articles, welcoming ppl etc.)

F ) As a change, I request at least one "brainstorming and decisions meeting " (or more) with the concerned people (the board and/or TSP team + SUSE "financial decision makers - manager) to :

* find solutions on "HOW can we reduce (+++) the "reimbursement delay" ? or even give the money to ppl who cannot advance it (what about having a annual budget for openSUSE TSP ?)

* as any financial budget has a limit - would it be possible to know the annual budget for TSP and "which events and actions are mostly appreciated by the sponsor SUSE & openSUSE teams - seen as having a good impact (can be suggested as priorities for 2015 or 2016) = give as much informations as possible to volonteers wishing to help and act.

Annexe (for the mostly appreciated actions) :

- mini-summit Asia or Scale were OK (from what I saw, read or heard)

- are booth still encouraged ? (in openSource events) - are openSUSE talks encouraged?

- are hackweek or hack-week-ends encouraged (for example one team wishing to work 4 days on packaging ... / would the TSP pay travel and hotel ? Would it be possible in such cases to avoid the TSP and pay directly the hotel + travel for example.)

Comment : if you give ideas and money to do that kind of things, I am sure that more and more contributors will DO and DO more (giving hours and hours to produce with FUN).
