I would also like to thank the community for the generally high tone of
feedback and engagement we've seen to applications so far - your
comments and suggestions are providing a strong level of assurance
around grant applications and ensuring their alignment with Linux
Australia's values. Thank you for your time and insights.


Council has been discussing several other grant requests with
prospective applicants, and more are expected.

Kind regards,
Kathy
