Yeah we're registered Did we receive funds? | 11:24:49 |
| Eelco | Not sure, donations from the UK Online Giving Foundation may go through Benevity | 11:29:55 |
| Janik (they/them) | Can you check? The email on the benevity page suggests that you have access to the account. | 11:30:51 |
| Eelco | Yes those donations go through Benevity | 12:08:41 |
| Janik (they/them) | Did you check if we actually received funds? 🙈 | 12:10:36 |
| Eelco | yes | 12:11:19 |
| Janik (they/them) | sorry can you be a bit more verbose, do you mean yes we received funds or yes you checked, that's a important difference. | 12:14:14 |
| Eelco | yes I checked and yes we received | 12:16:00 |
 raitobezarius | My understanding is that folks are interested to understand if, in the following report https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-foundation-financial-summary-a-transparent-look-into-2023/43640, are those funds counted there under company donations or personal donations? Given that they are technically third-party donations via the Benevity proxy | 12:19:33 |

 twitchy0 | Am I supposed to submit funding requests in advance?

| twitchy0 | Is a ~$25-30 expense per person appropriate? (I have limited catering options at pier 57) | 18:49:40 |

 ronef | Ping the NY User Group! Sure we can find there a reason to get folks together! :) | 16:12:24 |
| ronef | I'm going to be out today (mostly), show Baka (the puppy) a bit of water. Super appreciative of all the efforts in the last few weeks. Remember that this is a marathon we're running together, and not a sprint. Take the time to check in on yourselves, loved ones, and everything else that might matter to you. Hope everyone has a restful Saturday/Sunday. ❤️
I'll send mandatory Baka pics at some point :) | 16:15:46 |

| nyanbinary | It's very concerning to see that board members can "endorse"/vouch for applicants for the assembly | 00:38:20 |
| nyanbinary | Like does nobody see the conflict here lmfao | 00:39:04 |
| nyanbinary | Ron & Jonas vouched for Silvan here. | 00:40:46 |
| nyanbinary | Dare I say this is a bit biased :P | 00:45:24 |
 infinisil | nyanbinary I put it in myself, didn't ask them explicitly, I disclosed it in the conflict of interest section too | 00:46:18 |
| infinisil | Fully agreed that it looks a bit weird, but I don't think it should be. I helped them out a ton in the past two weeks ;) | 00:47:20 |

nyanbinary I put it in myself, didn't ask them explicitly, I disclosed it in the conflict of interest section too That still doesn't explain why they "vouch" for you though. | 00:48:44 |
