From c27b5ada301a1756f7e1910a36850384dd9dd11d 2012-03-02 17:16:06 From: Bradley M. Kuhn Date: 2012-03-02 17:16:06 Subject: [PATCH] cjl asked: I believe it is important to be very specific about reimbursement for travel as this is probably one of the moret common forms of financial transactions in many projects. It would be unfortunate if PLC members were made ineligible (or unduly burdened) in requesting travel funding on an equal footing with other project members. We've explicitly stated now that legitimate reimbursements are not compensation. --- diff --git a/Conflicts/conflict-of-interest-policy.txt b/Conflicts/conflict-of-interest-policy.txt index 98786cca35c5ac35db9b5fe6eb56a365b57a4b0a..03e8160bfcf88673c0dbc0ad27a75166f3f4fe28 100644 --- a/Conflicts/conflict-of-interest-policy.txt +++ b/Conflicts/conflict-of-interest-policy.txt @@ -72,7 +72,7 @@ not compromised by personal interests. member) shall derive any personal profit or gain, directly or indirectly, by reason of his or her participation with Conservancy.
