Hi Ilario,
I'm not sure that I understand what you're saying. Are you suggesting
that for three months long, nobody can get a grant from the Wikimedia
Foundation if it is not directly related to the gender gap? This would be
very surprising to me, and inconsistent with communications that I am aware
of... It would be quite disruptive of the process as well.
Nonetheless I do think that any project like Wiki Loves Monuments that
involves a general audience, is in part a solution to the bias-problems
such as the gender gap. But it would be counterintuitive to position it as
such.

For your record, there is the plan to reserve the
grants of the first
quarter of 2015 for project for gender gap. It's an idea not official yet.
So I agree that the best is to draft the budget because the submission
probably may be conditioned by this decision and delayed to the middle of
2015.
Best regards and happy new year (at least for those using the Gregorian
calendar).
