already been covered. I think we need to return to the OSGeo budget request and associated aspects. Specifically, </span></div>

was last done with the FOSS4G update here (but am unclear, what date does that go through?),

<div class="x_PlainText">Dear OSGeo committees,<br>
<br>
OSGeo is proud to support our committees (including project steering <br>
committees), initiatives, and a growing number of projects. We have been <br>
pleased to see funding applied to day to day operations, improvements <br>
and a wide range of community building activities including events, code <br>
sprints, developer meetings and user conferences.<br>
<br>
Our continued ability to offer financial support is due a successful <br>
FOSS4G 2023 and the generosity of our ongoing sponsors.<br>
<br>
OSGeo Committees<br>
<br>
To plan our 2024 budget, we are reaching out to all OSGeo committees to <br>
help plan for the year ahead.<br>
<br>
As our budget forecasting includes communicating with sponsors we ask <br>
you to list any sponsorship opportunities you are aware of for 2024. We <br>
know that it can be difficult to ask for money. Please be clear with <br>
each sponsorship opportunity, and the visibility benefit you are able to <br>
offer sponsors.<br>
<br>
Example:<br>
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/SAC:Budget#2023">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/SAC:Budget#2023</a><br>
<br>
OSGeo Projects<br>
<br>
Each year we are pleased to welcome new graduated projects to OSGeo. The <br>
Board starts planning by providing a set amount to all graduated <br>
projects who have:<br>
<br>
1. Reported to the Board their activities of the last 12 months (e.g. <br>
during the AGM or directly to a Board meeting); and<br>
2. Have sent a budget request.<br>
<br>
While we have not determined the amount for 2024, last year each project <br>
was provided a $1000 USD operational budget. Funding allows each project <br>
committee to plan ahead, and support their team activities without <br>
hesitation.<br>
<br>
Keep in mind that if any unforeseen event occurs during the year we are <br>
here to support you. Project teams have approached the board during the <br>
course of a year to respond to security vulnerabilities, or request <br>
legal advice, that was not anticipated during budget planning.<br>
<br>
Projects with a more specific plan (to pursue a clear goal) are welcome <br>
to send a more detailed budget. Larger goals should be presented as <br>
clear sponsorship opportunities to your community, and OSGeo will do our <br>
best to help out also.<br>
<br>
Tip: Keep in mind OSGeo goals as an organization. We love to support <br>
community participation, for example attending the AGM or a <br>
cross-project code sprint.<br>

OSGeo Community Projects<br>
<br>
Projects working on incubation are asked to contact <br>
incubator@lists.osgeo.org to be included in the 2024 incubation budget <br>
request.<br>
<br>
<br>
Budget Meeting<br>
<br>
To help navigate the uncertainties ahead in 2024, the Board will have a <br>
budget meeting in December 2023 to review 2023 expenditures, sponsorship <br>
and make financial decisions for the 2024 budget.<br>
<br>
Please add your project info to the budget draft at:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2024">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2024</a><br>
<br>
Budget requests should be submitted ideally by 20 December 2023 in <br>
advance of our next Board meeting.<br>
<br>
On behalf of the OSGeo Board,<br>
Angelos<br>
