Description:
The Python Software Foundation (PSF) board has announced improvements to its grants program that have been enacted as a
response to " concerns and frustrations " with the program: The PSF Board takes the open letter from the pan-African delegation
seriously, and we began to draft a plan to address everything in the
letter. We also set up improved two-way communications so that we can
continue the conversation with the community. The writers of the open
letter have now met several times with members of the PSF board. We
are thankful for their insight and guidance on how we can work
together and be thoroughly and consistently supportive of the
pan-African Python community. So far the PSF has set up office
hours to improve communications, published
a retrospective on the DjangoCon Africa review, and put out a transparency report on grants from the past two years. The PSF board has also
voted to " use the same criteria for all grant requests, no matter
their country of origin ".
