  • with previous agreement by the president within his or her discretionary budget set by the board of trustees
    • I thought this case was covered by the previous point... but maybe it is not, depending on what discretionary budget is. If discretionary budget is (for example) overall travel budget set for WSIS, with travellers chosen by the president, it is covered by previous point. If discretionary budget is that 10% authorization minus or plus for approved budget, then it is indeed a different point. Can you clarify discretionary budget ?
      • I was just trying to clarify the language. The idea here is just that it will probably make sense for me to have the authorization for some amount of travel budget which I could use to send particular people to particular places from time to time as needed. With WSIS, this was a particular event, authorized by the board. I am thinking more of a one-time thing, especially in cases where a decision needs to be made quickly. The overall amount of this budget would of course be set by the board, and should be reasonably small. The idea is just to avoid having to have a board meeting for something as small as reimbursing Soufron (for example) for a trip to Frankfurt (for example) to meet with the German lawyers. --Jimbo Wales 16:10, 14 December 2005 (UTC)Reply
