With the princely allocation of $600 I received, I’ve been going through the list with my partner and discussing the pros and cons as we see them of each project before allocating them. Obviously the majority of these discussions are going to end in no donation, so I wonder if Austin thinks (or any of the individual grant requestors, if you’re reading this would like) us to comment on why we’re not funding those we don’t, if we feel like we have anything to say?
Please keep in mind if we did that there are dozens of projects and we don’t want to much extra bandwidth on this, so if we made such comments they would more or less be a C&P of our personal notes, and not edited to spare anyone’s feelings.
I’d really appreciate you leaving thoughts on the projects, even if you decided not to fund them. I expect that most project organizers would also appreciate your feedback, to help them understand where their proposals as written are falling short. Copy & paste of your personal notes would be great!
