<br>>> Reminder to the Bonn team from me (not board)
<br>>> I would encourage you to offer the board a quick heads up on the level of advance funding you think you might need and when you will need it (e.g. a deposit for the venue)
<br>>> Dublin, a great bid - don’t be discouraged. Why not consider applying for FOSS4G Europe 2017?
<br>>> Cheers
