With this and pascal's request you have some good options to support OBS and/or other areas of the openSUSE project.
Thanks a lot Alan!
Here's one more idea: use the money to sponsor our mentors to come to the openSUSE conference...
I'm not sure it would work accounting-wise, with what Alan said:
- the openSUSE conference is in September, so we'd need to spend the money at that time - we won't receive the money before October
I'll work on the accounting. I know that many of the mentors will already be attending the conference, but if these funds could enable a mentor to attend when he/she wouldn't otherwise be able, I think that this would be a great use of the moneys. Alan
Alan, would that work?
Cheers,
Vincent
