The relevant Meta page is https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants
It was written mainly with information from the Wikimania 2011 session 
pad, so it may be slightly outdated. Can you please merge yours in? 
Worth asking others on chapters-l.
I'm also still wondering whether WMF has some document somewhere with 
reflections on their grants to individuals, which I missed in 
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:Retrospective_2009-2012>; of 
course their case is different (way more risky and uncertain because 
they of distance in all senses).
