Hello Kirsten,<br>
<br>
Thank you for your patience in this. As you may have seen from our
minutes during our meeting last week we discussed your grant
request.
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap=""> *
Request from Open Food Web from KIRSTEN LARSEN and next actions
Request was discussed in terms of precedence, alignment with values of
Linux Australia etc. Awaiting response from Kirsten to Brianna.
Comfortable with hosting request, further information needed around
developer time, licensing implications.
NOTED that Microsoft Word documents / .docx format is not ideal for a
grant submission to Linux Australia <span class="moz-smiley-s1" title=":-)"></span>
MOTION Council to work with Admin Team to provide appropriate VPS to
Open Food Web
</pre>
</blockquote>
<br>
We were unable to reach a decision in regards to the second half of
your grant request as we'd like a few further clarifications. If you
are able to respond to Brianna Laugher's email we feel that she had
some valid questions.<br>
<br>
In regards to helping with hosting and VPS's we've approved your
request and we'd be happy to assist. I will shoot an email to get
things rolling.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Josh<br>

<br>
As a new member of Linux Australia, I firstly say hello :)<br>
<br>
Secondly, please find attached some information about our new
organisation (the Open Food Web Foundation) and a request for some
support to get established.<br>
<br>
More information is in the attached document, but in summary we
are an Australian non-profit, established in October 2012 with the
express aim to develop, accumulate and protect open source
knowledge, code, applications and platforms for fair and
sustainable food systems.<br>
<br>
We are requesting assistance from Linux Australia, in the form of:<br>
<ul>
<li>Infrastructure - potential VPS hosting of the OFW Foundation
collaborative community, as well as production and development
applications of Open Food Network software and sys admin
support if possible / appropriate; and</li>
<li>$2,000 for developer time to translate and set-up the
CollabCo system for our organisation. We will then have a
collaborative online space from which to build the Open Food
Web Foundation community and projects (see attached
explanation). </li>
</ul>
We anticipate that the second item would be completed and launched
within two months. We will prominently acknowledge Linux Australia
as a partner on the website and provide the link to the Linux user
group. <br>
<br>
Thanks to those who have provided guidance and support so far, and
we look forward to comments and suggestions from others<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Kirsten<br>
Director, Open Food Web Foundation </blockquote>
