Proposal
State of the Microgrant Process
Why?
How to apply
The process we used so far was as follow:
1 microgrants contact point for the community (@ana at the moment).
2. Upon receiving a request, this person immediately asks the whole board by email (using the board@hackuarium.com email address) and waits for 3 positive replies.
3. If 3 members of the board support the request, it is a green light.
4. If there are concerns within 48 hours, negative opinions, it gets discussed at the next board meeting (within a month).
