In addition, we have taken the step of reserving a block of hotel rooms and this required Azavea to commit to a minimum number of room nights. We have suggested an approach that might help to both raise registration as well as cover part of out-of-town sprinter's expenses.</span></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font color="#000000"><br></font></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font color="#000000">In line with the the <a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Code_Sprint_Guidelines" target="_blank">OSGeo Code Sprint Guidelines</a>, we have prepared the following materials:</font></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font color="#000000"><b><i><br></i></b></font></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><font color="#000000"><b><i>Sprint wiki page:</i> </b> </font><a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015" target="_blank">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Philadelphia_Code_Sprint_2015</a></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div><i style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><b>Formal proposal </b></i><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">outlining the requested information from </span><a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Code_Sprint_Guidelines" style="font-size:12.8000001907349px" target="_blank">OSGeo Code Sprint Guidelines</a><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">: </span><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eInBOaj8PF2V7U9kt4JRcrkhyI9puh2EdygCmulXa4I/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eInBOaj8PF2V7U9kt4JRcrkhyI9puh2EdygCmulXa4I/edit?usp=sharing</a></span></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div><i style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><b>Detailed Budget: </b></i><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ctrAdPuhw7HzFFT_0X5gMsw-p_cBuLguLVj4mtNl--M/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ctrAdPuhw7HzFFT_0X5gMsw-p_cBuLguLVj4mtNl--M/edit?usp=sharing</a></span></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">The budget is outlined using a similar format to the <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AvA-LTbghEuHdC1oX3BpYW9RUU5neTU4ZkZOeEpwcFE" target="_blank">2014 sprint in Vienna</a>.</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Any surplus will be returned to OSGeo.</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">I invite the board to let me know if you have any questions about the materials or the request,</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Best regards,</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Robert</div><div><div><div dir="ltr"><span></span><span></span><br>------------------<br>Robert Cheetham<div><br><div>Azavea <span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;border-collapse:collapse"> | 340 N 12th St, Ste 402, Philadelphia, PA</span><br><a href="mailto:cheetham@azavea.com" target="_blank">cheetham@azavea.com</a><span> | T <span title="Call with Google Voice"><span title="Call with Google Voice"><span title="Call with Google Voice"><span title="Call with Google Voice"><span title="Call with Google Voice"><span title="Call with Google Voice"><a href="tel:215.701.7713" value="+12157017713" target="_blank">215.701.7713</a></span></span></span></span></span></span><span> </span></span><br>Web <a href="http://www.azavea.com/" target="_blank">azavea.com</a><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;border-collapse:collapse"> | Blog <a href="http://azavea.com/blogs" style="color:rgb(28,81,168)" target="_blank">azavea.com/blogs</a> | <span style="border-collapse:separate;font-family:arial;font-size:small">Twitter</span> <a href="http://goog_858212415" target="_blank">@</a></span><a href="http://twitter.com/rcheetham" target="_blank">rcheetham</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/azavea" target="_blank">@azavea</a></div><div><br></div><div><font color="#073763"><i>Azavea is a <a href="http://www.bcorporation.net/what-are-b-corps" target="_blank">B Corporation</a> - we apply geospatial technology for civic and social impact</i></font></div><div><font color="#073763"><i>while advancing the state-of-the-art through research. <a href="http://jobs.azavea.com/" target="_blank">Join us</a>.</i></font><br><br></div></div></div></div></div>
