[Sur] [IAEP] [SLOB] Outreachy

[Laura Vargas]

Hi Walter!

Thanks for doing this. I would personally love to present my candidacy to
any opportunity that supports the work and involvement of women in
libre-software initiatives.

So, definitively +1 for internships/mentorships for women!

I have read the links you sent, but I have failed to understand if with
Outreachy Sugar Labs gets more than 1 intern sponsored?

As for the funds request, since there are General Funds being required, I
understand we will need to vote on a formal Motion.

Regards,

Laura V
