      <pre wrap="">Venka:
Thanks for the fair questions and thanks to the board for the serious
consideration of our request.

Steven, thanks for the general outline of a response and an enumeration of
our request. Your four points are entirely accurate and indeed several
people guided us to examine the Bonn agreement as a template for an
OSGeo/LOC agreement. This is precisely what we did, although in our case,
and unlike Bonn, the BLOC is not a legal entity and thus as with some past
conferences our PCO is part of the agreement as our "financial agent". So
here are a few additional details on the four main points:

   1. *Names*: Our agreement has three parties: OSGeo, the Boston Location
   Organizing Committee (BLOC) and Delaney Meeting & Event Management, our
   PCO, who is acting as our financial agent.
   2. *Seed funding*: We are asking for approval of up to maximum of
   $70,000 of advances. As per the email threads, we anticipate doing this
   through two separate requests. The first would be for $20,000 +/-
   immediately following our hoped for approval of the agreement. The second
   would be for the remaining $50,000 after the Bonn Conference concludes and
   as we begin to ramp up at a faster pace (and as deposits come due).
   3. *Additional guarantee*: Again, we followed the Bonn agreement model,
   and as Steven points out the "total exposure" for OSGeo between the
   advances and additional guarantee are the same for both Boston and Bonn. I
   would also observe that the known precedent of OSGeo providing these
   guarantees was something we considered strongly in forming our bid. Indeed,
   both the BLOC and OSGeo are "in this together" with substantial "skin in
   the game" and we are both strongly motivated for a superior and financially
   successful event. We will work tirelessly to ensure Boston continues the
   FOSS4G streak of being financially successful.
   4. *Contractual clauses*: As has happened over the years, we would
   certainly urge OSGeo to continue building on the template agreement and
   these clauses provide important *mutual *protections as well as
   providing a framework for cost-effective dispute resolution in the unlikely
   event it is needed. They are standard clauses, but they also articulate
   important principles.

Last, please consider the BLOC to have a strong +1 to Dirk's suggestion
that OSGeo look at an insurance approach for FOSS4G that could be designed
to cover future events and could leverage the good financial record of past
FOSS4G's. This would be one more thing that the "next conference" (e.g.,
2018) would not have to start from scratch with. Along those lines, we very
much appreciate Cameron resuscitating the "Priorities for Conference
Committee" thread, and anticipate chiming in over the coming weekend.
Indeed, the "starting from scratch" issues are something that are
resonating with our team.

Please let us know if you have any further questions, or need
clarifications on the points made above. We remain very hopeful that we can
receive Board approval *this week*. And, we are also hopeful that if we do
receive that approval it will be provided with some guidance on "what comes
next" in terms of putting signatures on the agreement and formally
initiating the financial request for an advance. The signatures part is
most important as we continue to face a near term deadline for signing an
agreement with our venue that will legally secure the date.

Thanks in advance...

        <pre wrap="">Thank you Steven,

This is a clear statement and an improvement of the contract in relation
to last year in relation to exposed risk.

i.m.h.o. this should pass the board's decision for this event. If the
board should have still questions about the contract in general, we
should discuss them and formulate an advise for improvement for future
events.
One improvement could be that OSGeo get insured for the extra exposed
risk (for future events), based on the financial history of all the
FOSS4G events in the past.
