Balancing opportunities between trustees and volunteers

One topic that is becoming increasingly frequent is opportunities for delivering paid training and contracting related to Wikipedia. Given that these opportunities often come through Wikimedia UK work or contacts, trustees will naturally end up in the front line for responding to these opportunities. We need to figure out a way of balancing these opportunities evenly between non-trustee and trustee volunteers, to make sure that there isn't a significant trustee benefit arising here, whilst not excluding trustees from having an equal opportunity for responding to these opportunities.

This may be more a case of process than policy, but I think that a high-level description of our approach would fit into this policy well. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 07:15, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
