Reforwarding Alex email to this list since some seems to have miss it.
Rapid grant can be asked anytimes, but it is only up to 2000 dollars for
rather standard requests
Wikiindaba would rather belong to Project Grant and those are only
approved twice a year. Last day to apply for next session is 30th of May.
