Great to see you pushing this forward. I see that you have a very
tight timeline and at the moment, the OSGeo Marketing Committee
hasn't resolved our issue of micro payments. (It costs OSGeo $30
to make a payment).<br>
<br>
We have an outstanding proposal that funding can be requested for
$2 DVD for 10% of attendees, for legitimate events. (That would be
$80 for consumables).<br>
More can be requested if you have matching funding. Do you have a
co-sponsor?<br>

<br>
A legitimate event would be one which has been given an OSGeo
Booth, and/or has someone presenting on OSGeo projects. Does this
conference qualify?<br>
<br>
We could also pay up to $500 once off payment for non-consumables
for a local chapter.<br>

We haven't discussed top ups, maybe $50 to $100 would be in order.<br>
<br>
In parallel with this email thread, I'd like to rekindle our
discussion and set a final policy for determining how the OSGeo
Marketing committee should hand out our $10K budget.<br>

<div>The PDX-OSGeo chapter will have a booth at the upcoming
(April 30th-May 1) GIS In Action conference in Portland,
Oregon (a $450 in-kind contribution from the conference).
We would like to distribute OSGeo Live on USBs and DVDs.
There will be roughly 400 conference attendees. <br>
<br>
</div>
We already have a pop-up banner but need a table runner with
OSGeo logo, OSGeo shirts, and OSGeo Live USBs and DVDs. We
are also interested in printed material about OSGeo projects
and OSGeo, that I think is more an issue of the files than
the printing (since someone will probably provide
printing). <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Any recommendations for a source for the table runner?
Is the OSGeo cafepress store the source for shirts? What is
the best source for the DVDs (is it already available at
some vendors)?<br>
</div>
<div><br>
Branders.com has been recommended as one source for USBs
with printed logos, It appears as if 50 4GB drives with
logo would cost roughly $450. Are there other
recommendations for USB sources? Any that have a good track
record for bootable USBs? <br>
<br>
</div>
Other than writing this list, what is the process to request
marketing funds? <br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks, Eli<br>
