Hi, The following process, previously discussed in [1] and [2], is now active. The Debian System Administrators (DSA) can make expenses for up to US$400 to support the operation of Debian infrastructure (pay shipping costs, purchase of cheap hardware such as cables, replacement disks, etc.). DSA does not need to wait for DPL approval to make such expenses. The DPL will always approve such expenses, provided that the total outstanding amount spent in advance of DPL approval never exceeds US$400. The process can be revoked at any time by the DPL. Expenses that were already made at the time of the revocation, and that meet the other conditions, will still be approved by the DPL. The expected implementation of the process is: 1. DSA agrees internally on making an expense 2. DSA proceeds with making the expense 3. DSA submits the approval request and the reimbursement request in the same email (see [1], "How to get your reimbursement" for details). 4. DPL approves. 5. TO reimburses DSA. Note that this process does not change anything from the Trusted Organization treasurer's point of view. They are still expected to wait for the DPL's approval before proceeding with reimbursement.
