 ===Instagrants===
-[[Instagrants]] are grants that we can easily fill without discussion, generally of equipment like mice or monitors that we have lots of. Agreement between two grants group people (especially if one is a member of the production team) is enough to approve an instagrant, as long as one of those people is willing to shepherd it. (Again, without a shepherd, the grant won't happen.)

-The shepherd of the grant has to claim the ticket in RT and notify the requestor. Communication should be tracked on RT so that people can look it up and take care of things if the shepherd is not around. Occasionally, shepherds will need to organize volunteer activity or make a special project happen.  For more information, see our [http://web.freegeek.org/howto/hardwaregrants/ howto].
