Outreachy finance

Hello,

Today on Outreachy Chat I was asked if we are willing to raise the number
of interns, should there be more than one good candidate. I believe we
could do that, but would not like to decide on this. I was convenient to
add funding for one itern on my own, as it is a prerequisite of community
application. Do you think we could approve the funding for more interns?

Best regards,
g_bor

I'm afraid I don't understand this sentence.  Could you rephrase?

Kind regards,

When applying on behalf of the Guix community to participate in
Outreachy, the community coordinator (this time this is Gábor) needs to
confirm that there are funds for at least one intern.

The community coordinator can declare that funding for more interns is
available, which would permit the Outreachy organizers to accept more
interns, which could then be accepted (or rejected) by the project
mentors.

We currently have two projects registered with Outreachy, IIUC, but we
have declared to only have funds for one intern.

The question is now, whether we can up that number by committing another
6,500 USD (?) to Outreachy.  The actual fee paid depends on how many
interns are accepted by us and how many of them finish their internship.

Gábor, please correct me if I wrote something wrong or misleading.

Thanks for the clarification, that is exactly what I ment. Everything above
is correct, except that we have 3 projects listed, but we declared funds
for only one intern.
