<div class="m_4190500515613333683markdown-here-wrapper">Next steps: We would like to make these changes
effective in a week, on 20 September. The reason for the gap
is we want to give you time to discuss them internally.
Because these changes potentially mean increased project
expenses, we understand you might not be prepared to take
those on. If you would like to follow the old policies, or
other rules that are stricter than ours, you can always do
that. Just let us know through your project alias, and we’ll
handle your reimbursement requests accordingly. If we don’t
hear from you, we’ll follow the new rules for any reimbursed
expenses incurred on or after 20 September. </div>

<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">Hello again everyone,</p>
<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">With apologies for the
delay, this is done. The changes have been merged into the
master branch, and we’ll start following them for reimbursement
requests from here on out.</p>
<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">We’ve <a href="https://sfconservancy.org/projects/policies/conservancy-travel-policy.html" target="_blank">published
the policy on our web site</a>, under the Projects section. I
know the old presentation left something to be desired, so this
is the link you’ll probably want to send to project participants
(and read yourself!) from here on out.</p>
<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">Again, as PLCs, you are
always allowed to impose additional limits on the expenses
you’ll reimburse, whether for specific expenses or as a general
policy. If you decide to do that, please just let us know by
writing to your project alias @<a href="http://sfconservancy.org" target="_blank">sfconservancy.org</a>.</p>
<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">Feel free to contact me
if you have any questions.</p>
<p style="margin:1.2em 0px!important">Best regards,</p>
