| bkerensa | valorie: do you know how GSoC money is handled? | 17:09 |
|---|---|---|
| bkerensa | Ubuntu is going to apply this year | 17:10 |
| bkerensa | but we need to sort out who gets money | 17:10 |
| bkerensa | and who signs contract | 17:10 |
| bkerensa | since Canonical is not Ubuntu | 17:10 |
| bkerensa | :) | 17:10 |
| valorie | it's up to the org how they handle the money | 23:09 |
| valorie | some allow it to go directly from Google to mentors | 23:09 |
| valorie | that is the only money we're talking about afaik | 23:10 |
| valorie | in the case of KDE, the money goes to the e.V. (foundation) | 23:10 |
| valorie | and then KDE sends mentors to the mentor summit with that money | 23:10 |
| valorie | so if there isn't a community foundation of some sort, Canonical may be willing to handle it instead | 23:11 |
| valorie | often mentors *can't* be paid directly because of tax laws | 23:11 |
| valorie | I suggest talking to someone such as Lydia "Nightrose" or someone from the GNOME foundation for more specific info | 23:12 |
| valorie | the Google folks in #gsoc are excellent as well | 23:13 |
