If it's not encoded as an earmark from one of our "sponsors" (e.g. Debian), I don't see any reason for this to be encoded at the budget level. That simply adds an additional constraint on how the bursaries team can use the funds for Debian's benefit. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
