Cameron, it seems clear that the teams in Nottingham <b>&
Minneapolis</b> are well down the path of arranging what they
need so perhaps our discussion is more forward looking. Please
confirm you feel the same way?<br>
<br>
If so, perhaps we might take a look at the services and the
lessons learned from past events and tailor it to what might be
preferred for future events. For example, perhaps in the scope,
section B, items 6 & 7 (prospectus & solicitation), and
8 (website) might make sense to include?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">As
you are probably aware, for the International event in
Denver, GITA and OSGeo agreed to a fixed cost contract
for all services provided. I believe the effective
percentage charge was in the ballpark of 30% of
profit. For the upcoming North American event,
SharedGeo and OSGeo agreed to a highly flexible
contract which allows for tailoring of services as
determined by the Local Organizing Committee.
Consequently, the payment concept is cost plus 3%.
Both approaches have pluses and minuses. I think the
GITA model probably makes sense for the international
event, whereas the flexible approach is probably a
better model for regional events.</span></p>
