Hi Steven,<br>
sorry for the late reply<br>

<br>
In case of a cancellation of a physical event forced by government<br>
restrictions, there are some services that might be reimbursed by the<br>
suppliers, still, it depends on when the restriction will be applied.<br>
If the cancellation of the event should not depend on government<br>
restrictions instead, all the advances already paid to the suppliers<br>
would be lost.<br>
<br>
Here below we can try to provide a schedule of costs month by month<br>
but it’s just an economic simulation:<br>
<br>
· July 2021: 11000 €<br>
· October 2021: 17000€<br>
· Dicembre 2021: 12000€<br>
· April 2022: 26000€<br>
· May 2022: 15000€<br>
· June 2022: 15000€<br>
· July 2022: 207.000€<br>
· August 2022: remaining costs<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I've reformatted this (Luca, please correct if I've made errors):</div><div><br></div><div> Month Cumulative<br>July 11000 11000<br>August 0 11000<br>September 0 11000<br>October 17000 28000<br>November 0 28000<br>December 12000 40000<br>January 0 40000<br>February 0 40000<br>March 0 28000<br>April 26000 66000<br>May 15000 81000<br>June 15000 96000<br>July 207000 303000<br></div><div><br></div><div>Eli</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<br>
No, we can't be sure though:<br>
<br>
* that's the amount of money we are exhibiting OSGeo for and that<br>
would cover our expenses until April, when we will certainly have<br>
already decided whether the event will be physical, hybrid or online<br>
* the problem is if we decide to do it physically and the month before<br>
the conference an unforeseen event like COVID happens, so we are<br>
considering the possibility of taking out an ad hoc insurance.<br>
<br>
> What organisation will OSGeo be contacting with?<br>
><br>
<br>
GFOSS.it is the Italian Local Chapter and main organizer for FOSS4G<br>
2022 and the direct contact with OSGeo. GFOSS.it will sign a contract<br>
with AIM (PCO) for the management of the event.<br>
