Is this a counter-proposal to the already in process "Future of Collab" proposal, or is it just a change in how hardware grants would work?

If it's a change in how the Hardware Grants program works, then a few of things:

  • It seems like the place for the proposal would be the Hardware Grants group and not the Council.
  • I think (some minor flaws aside) the Hardware Grants program is working OK.
  • Would there be then two groups Hardware Grants and NAP? (If so, it sounds kind of like overkill.)
  • It seems like it would be harder for a NP to "just get a computer" from us this way.
  • As to the biggest flaw in the Hardware Grants process (takes a long time), how does this address that? (That is, why will shepherds respond more quickly if the queue/group/email list is called NAP, rather than hardware grants?)
