2020 Conferences and SPI 5% fee
Resolution 2020-06-08.mcs.1: 2020 Conferences and SPI 5% fee WHEREAS 1. Software in the Public Interest, Inc. (SPI) is a Debian Trusted Organization. 2. The annual Debian Conference (Debian) utilizes SPI to collect some of the conference sponsorship funds. 3. SPI has inconsistently charged its 5% administrative fee for conference sponsorships. 4. SPI has not yet determined the effect of waiving the 5% administrative fee for conference sponsorships in perpetuity. THE SPI BOARD RESOLVES THAT 1. For conferences held by SPI associated projects in 2020, SPI will waive its 5% administrative fee. 2. SPI will refund the 5% administrative fee to Debian for the 2016-2019 Debian conferences. 3. Future administrative fee decisions for conference sponsorships will be determined at a later date.
