Foundation discussion

The topic of amending the TO structure with a legal entity representing Debian has been coming up again during Jonathan’s last term and the following DPL election. The process of evaluating options stalled last time, we’ll discuss why and discuss which targets a Debian Foundation needs to fulfill and what legal / procedural framework options this leaves us to assess.

DebConf bursary team BoF

The first 30 min are meant to be the annual retrospective and discuss the good, the bad, and anything in between regarding bursaries for DebConf24.

There has been a substantial discussion between the bursary team, the Debian treasurers and the DPL regarding the priorities for bursary grants and the distribution between team budgets, the general pool, the outreach pool and grants for invited speakers. We want to use the remainder of the session to go through the options and build a rough consensus on the process for 2025 bursaries.
