Board/Minutes/2017-09-21: Difference between revisions

|'' Discussion about updating the current travel policy and possibly having a yearly standing budget for small travel grants, available to mappers and developers who would like to attend an OpenStreetMap event. It has been proposed that the process should be standardised, the budget limited and the amounts claimed -as well as the name of the persons- public. <br/><br/> Updating the travel policy was initially proposed during the [https://blog.openstreetmap.org/2017/06/27/summary-of-boards-face-to-face-meeting/ Face-to-Face board meeting in May], where it was also discussed whether the policy should cover board members' travel to regional [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map State of the Map] (SotM) conferences that have requested board presence - or whether giving the money directly to regional SotMs might be preferable. <br/><br/> The current travel policy automatically covers board members' travel to the international State of the Map conference and essential OSM Foundation duty - everything else needs to be discussed.
