I have updated the section on the “Selection Process” to provide

<div class="">Dear Dar-Team!<br class="">
<br class="">
I just came across the travel grant programme (TGP) WIKi
pages of the<br class="">
2017 conference. TGP was - in our eyes - really
successful, as we were<br class="">
able to get quite some people to F4G through TGP.<br
class="">
<br class="">
Looking back, the whole process happened somehow under
pressure, as we<br class="">
did not have much time last year (after OSGeo released the
fundings, we<br class="">
only had few weeks for establishing the whole process).
But for 2018 we<br class="">
of course want to improve the process and ideally expand
the whole<br class="">
programme.<br class="">
<br class="">
This page describes what we did for 2017:<br class="">

class="" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/FOSS4G_Travel_Grant_Programme_2017</a><br
class="">
<br class="">
(I started to add a section "procedure 2017 which might
not be complete<br class="">
as I just wrote down what came to my mind - @CCers feel
free to add/edit<br class="">
;-))<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
I'd like you to put some attention on TGP when discussing
your next<br class="">
steps. It would be great, if we could start planning TGP
earlier (in<br class="">
words: as early as possible) for 2018 and also publish a
call for<br class="">
community donations as early as possible.<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
Personally I regard TGP as one of the key factors on
enabling more<br class="">
people to access a F4G. And also, I'd like to have had an
external TGP<br class="">
committee in 2016, but there was none. Just so you know,
we are ready to<br class="">
help and support you where we can, so don't hesitate
contacting CC or me<br class="">
directly in this issue.<br class="">
