<p>Hello,</p>

<p></p>
<div>With some regret, Council have rejected this grant request.<br>
<br>
While Council found that this grant had great merit and applauded its goals, we decided that the outcome of the grant was not in alignment with the goals of Linux Australia or of a direct benefit to members in general. It also doesn't sufficiently advance
open data or open source in the Australasian community.<br>
<br>
I would also like to note that the Linux Australia President, Kathy Reid, did not participate in the discussion of this grant and abstained from the voting process.<br>

for funds, from the Linux Australia Grants Scheme, to extend the project through an open source dataset that will benefit schools, community organisations, government, businesses and future researchers. Should there be any queries in the assessment process
I would be more than happy to address them promptly. </span></p>
