[FOSS4G-Oceania] Motion: Recognise in-kind support

[Cameron Shorter]

I think we should additionally include a clarification about the point 
at which we consider "in kind support" worthy of getting acknowledgement.

With a lax definition, "in kind support" could include someone being 
given time from their employer to attend the conference, and I think 
that we are wanting to acknowledge a higher level than that.

I think it should be something along the lines of "giving more of one's 
volunteer time and commitment toward the running of the conference than 
the value of a conference ticket". Although I suspect it won't apply in 
our case, it could be extended to include people who are not on the 
conference committee. (I'm thinking that we can donate this statement to 
the foss4g cookbook).
