<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dan, no problem. I am going to come
back with a bunch of organizations that we can support. We can
then vote and then evenly distribute the amount among the top
votes to maintain parity.<br>

<div>I'd personally like to see us vote on an organization that
focuses in some way to open source on the JVM, since that's a
core belief we all (or most of us) share. Some ideas are Apache
or Eclipse. I'm open to other ideas as well.<br>

Mentors,<br>
each mentor is entitled to $500 for the work as part of
GSOC12.<br>
Typically organizations just donate the overall mentor
payment amount to<br>
a non-profit organization via Google. This avoids the
overhead of<br>
billing Google for the payments and deal with the tax
issues. Since<br>
mentors reside in different countries, it is not
worthwhile to dispatch<br>
payments to mentors.<br>
<br>
We are going to choose a non-profit organization that
supports Open<br>
Source Software. I will announce who it will be in due
course of time.<br>
<br>
If you have objections and want to have that payment for
yourself, then<br>
please email me. :)<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Anil<br>
