Since we did not manage to discuss this during our meeting
(due to<br>
long agenda), lets make a motion on Loomio and get this
approved, if<br>
everyone is ok with the discussion.<br>
This request aligns with our mission and we have provided seed
money<br>
to local events in the past.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

cool, do we need a board decision on this or is it a more

it" ;-) ?<br>

Hi Till and all,<br>
as far as I remember (as previous board member
and<br>
long-time shadowing<br>
chair of FOSS4G-Europe), seed money was always
granted (under the<br>
condition, it will be returned back).<br>
Just my 0.02<br>
Thank you<br>

In this<br>

conference. Do<br>
you have a plan, what should happen with a (potential)
surplus of<br>
the european confernece?<br>
