If you have any TPF related news or questions please email me (gavin@estey.com). One thing I will be doing is reporting on the events over the last few months, including the YAPCs and the latest round of grants."
"TPF is also looking to fill a new role, one of grant manager. Each grant manager will handle a few active grants at TPF: initiating contact with the grantee, helping to clean up their proposal for the website, working out a schedule for the development, following up with the grantee to make sure they have everything they need to complete the grant, helping to clean up their post-development report for the website, etc. It needs more organizational skills and an eye for details than anything else. If we can find 3-4 grant managers, it'll mean none have to handle more than 1 or 2 grants at a time, so it's fairly light work. If you are interested, or would like more details, get in touch with Alison Randal (al@shadowed.net)."
