<p>Michael,</p>
<p>as you said, the document is only a draft and I think all
positions are set to "0$", so it's just a placeholder, not the
foreseen budget ;-)</p>
<p>Cheers, Till</p>

Dear OSGeo project members and committees,<br>
<br>
Over the previous years, OSGeo has been proud to support a
growing <br>
number of project events, such as code sprints, developer
meetings, and <br>
user conferences.<br>
<br>
OSGeo is reaching out to all committees, including project
steering <br>
committees, to help plan our budget for 2020.<br>
<br>
As in last year, the board is discussing about assigning a
starting <br>
budget of 2000$ to all graduated projects who have reported to
the board <br>
the last 12 months (e.g. during the AGM or directly to a board
meeting).<br>
<br>
For projects with more of a plan (to pursue a specific goal)
projects <br>
are welcome to send a more detailed request for approval (see
detailed <br>
budget requests from 2019 e.g. <br>
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019</a>)<br>
<br>
A good idea is to focus on OSGeo participation, for example
attending <br>
the AGM or OSGeo code sprint. Also keep in mind OSGeo goals as
an <br>
organization, (e.g. interoperability goal: CITE compliance or
<br>
participation developing new standards)<br>
<br>
We would like to ask you to help us with budget proposals to
assist your <br>
project. This will help us set aside a realistic amount of
funding.<br>
<br>
Please add your project info to the budget draft at:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2020"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2020</a><br>
<br>
ideally by Dec 30 ahead of our next board meeting.<br>
<br>
When making a budget request please keep in mind the vision
and goals of <br>
our foundation, along with any obligations you wish to meet.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
<br>
On behalf of the OSGeo Board,<br>
<br>
Angelos<br>
