<div>Hi all,<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> The OSGeo Board will be meeting on the 28th of
January to discuss the 2025 budget. I propose we submit
a request for $5000 to help support the MapServer
project. <br>
</div>
<div> Last year an upper-limit of $2,500 was set for
projects, but this has typically been $5,000 in previous
years. <br>
</div>
<div> The development items are to help kick-start
implementing OGC Maps API and try to get MapServer 8 OGC
certified. Additional funding sources will be sought to
try and get these items completed. <br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> In terms of trying to raise additional funding:<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> - A proposal for a grant application was sent to
NLnet Foundation (<a href="https://nlnet.nl"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://nlnet.nl</a>).
We should know if this has been successful or not in
early February.<br>
</div>
<div> - Even also put in application last February to <a
href="https://nlnet.nl/bluehatsprize/2024/"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://nlnet.nl/bluehatsprize/2024/</a>
(unfortunately without a successful response).<br>
</div>
<div> - I emailed the user's mailing list with a link to
the sponsorship page. It looks like there was a problem
with the mailing list archives, as December 2024 is
missing from <a
href="https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/</a>.
The email was sent on December 8th with the title
"MapServer Budget and Sponsorship" - so I'm not sure if
anyone received it. <br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> I have added the funding request and fund-raising
efforts to the 2025 budget page at <a
href="https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/wiki/MapServer-2025-Budget"
rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/wiki/MapServer-2025-Budget</a><br>
</div>
<div> and propose to submit the budget to a vote, starting
with my +1. <br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> If we want to discuss further, we could maybe have a
PSC meeting next Thursday (23rd of January), prior to
the OSGeo Board meeting the following Tuesday. <br>
