<br class="">
OSGeo is reaching out to all committees, to help plan our budget for<br class="">
2019. Teams with an annual plan (to pursue a specific goal) are<br class="">
welcomed to send a detailed request for approval (e.g.<br class="">
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" class="">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019</a>)<br class="">
<br class="">
A good idea is to focus on OSGeo participation, for example attending<br class="">
the AGM or OSGeo code sprint or extending outreach of the committee.<br class="">
Also keep in mind OSGeo goals as an organization, (e.g.<br class="">
interoperability goal: CITE compliance or participation developing new<br class="">
standards)<br class="">
<br class="">
We would like to ask you to help us with budget proposals to assist<br class="">
your committee. This will help us set aside a realistic amount of<br class="">
funding.<br class="">
<br class="">
Please add your project info to the budget draft at:<br class="">

<br class="">
ideally by the end of January and ahead of our January board meeting.<br class="">
<br class="">
When making a budget request please keep in mind the vision and goals<br class="">
of our foundation, along with any obligations you wish to meet.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thank you and best wishes,<br class="">
