I'm sorry, but don't think it is a decision to be made by the bursaries team.
We are not talking about the evaluation of bursary requests, we are talking
about the DebCamp we want to have. And about how much structure to we need (or
want) for it. It is much broader then what bursaries folks should be dealing
with.
IMHO, it would fit the realm of the coordination team, and this list seems to
be a good channel for the discussion.
