    <p>Hi everyone,</p>
    <p>This request was considered in two parts at the Linux Australia
      Council meeting last night. <br>
    </p>
    <p>HEALTHHACK GRANT FOR SERVICES</p>
    <p>We discussed several options related to this Grant Request,
      specifically around the issue that most of the services listed are
      not open source, and we want to encourage the use of open source
      technologies. We also noted that as a small operation, it is
      harder for HealthHack to use technologies that are open source -
      as they often require self-hosting. On balance we noted that
      HealthHack outcomes are open-source licensed and the general
      societal benefit of Health Hack. <br>
    </p>
    <p>We approved this Grant Request to a value of approximately $2000,
      provided that a report on HealthHack outcomes is provided by end
      of December 2018. <br>

    <p>HEALTHHACK BECOMING A SUBCOMMITEE OF LINUX AUSTRALIA</p>
    <p>Several aspects were discussed in relation to this Grant Request.
      We noted that HealthHack does not derive any financial return;
      that is, Linux Australia would be taking on the risk of the event
      without any return - unlike say Pycon AU or <a href="http://linux.conf.au" target="_blank">linux.conf.au</a> where
      Linux Australia retains profits to provide seed funding and
      central services. We noted that the risk exposure of HealthHack
      will be low, as the event is only held in a small number of
      locations, and the financial exposure of the event is also low. <br>
    </p>
    <p>We have approved this request, subject to the subcommittee being
      reviewed at appropriate intervals to ensure that the risk exposure
      of the event is not growing beyond what Linux Australia is
      comfortable with. <br>
