That the missing USD 5981 had not been used (and were still sitting in WMHK's bank account) appears to have been the assumption in December when the WMF grants administrator accepted the report for the grant and suggested to offset the amount against an upcoming grant for the chapter. But on February 28 - on the eve of the FDC proposal deadline - Deryck responded explaining that the money had in fact already been used for purposes not mentioned in the grant report. Apart from that, your question seems valid: The path subsequently suggested by the grants administrator to resolve the situation (while indicating implications regarding the chapter's FDC proposal) was to request a reallocation while explaining what the money was spent for, so it is relevant to know whether it was taken. Again, I'm not familiar with this case and am going purely by the text on the linked page. -- Tilman Bayer Senior Operations Analyst (Movement Communications) Wikimedia Foundation IRC (Freenode): HaeB
