Great to hear this was a success. It sounds like you were making
use of OSGeo-Live in some form?<br>
If so, could you please add an entry in our History page. Keeping
track of our history provides justification for people and
companies contributing to OSGeo-Live.<br>

<div>Hi all,<br>

We had a great conference and unconference. The open source
track was so popular that it was often disrupted by the noise of
more chairs being added into the room by event staff to
accommodate all the standing people. <br>

As you deadline is fast approaching, I'll make a
call as Marketing chair on what is in and out of
scope based on what I think we can afford if
applied to all expected requests for funding:<br>
<br>
As you have explained, this conference
definitely qualifies as an event promoting OSGeo
in that OSGeo is being provided a booth for
free, and speaking slots on OSGeo topics.<br>
<br>
Also, there doesn't seem to be direct matching
funds for printing costs, so I suggest OSGeo
should pay: ($2 per DVD) * (10% * 400 delegates)
+ ($20 to round up) = $100. You may use this for
printing of DVDs or USBs or printed material.
Your choice.<br>
<br>
For non consumable items, a table runner is not
covered (we suggest using a simple table cloth
from home instead). Shirts and literature stand
is covered. I'm comfortable with approving $200
toward non-consumables (as I you explain that
your chapter has spent $300 of your $500).<br>

FYI the 30$ is for wire fees which is
the preferred method for international
payments.<br>
<br>
For payments in USA and Canada which
would the the case for PDX then I can
mail a check and the cost is more in
the range of 2$ (stamp + check costs).<br>

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

<div>The GIS In Action conference is
co-sponsoring to the extent of a
complimentary booth that would
otherwise cost $450. We are also
getting space the following day for
the PDX-OSGeo unconference (I'm not
exactly sure how that is being
sponsored). The general sentiment was
that branded USBs make a better
impression than DVDs. If we count
booth and unconference space
sponsorship, then we could get to some
number like
$80+match-to-booth-and-unconference-space
and spend it on USBs. I know that may
be stretching the intended 'matching
funding' definition. <br>

<div>We have a booth, PDX-OSGeo members
will be presenting on a variety of
projects covering at least QGIS,
OpenLayers, and others. PDX-OSGeo
members were also involved in the
conference planning so that there is a

there is an PDX-OSGeo unconference the
following day. Yes, it qualifies. <br>

<div>We have what I call an OSGeo 'pop

thing as a 'top up'). To complete the

shirts and a table runner (maybe a

pop up banner might have used about
$300 of the $500 but am not sure how
that actually panned out. <br>

conference). We would like to
distribute<br>
OSGeo Live on USBs and DVDs.
There will be roughly 400
conference<br>
attendees.<br>
<br>
We already have a pop-up

with OSGeo<br>
logo, OSGeo shirts, and OSGeo
Live USBs and DVDs. We are
also<br>
interested in printed material
about OSGeo projects and
OSGeo, that I<br>
think is more an issue of the
files than the printing (since
someone<br>
will probably provide
printing).<br>
<br>
Any recommendations for a
source for the table runner?
Is the OSGeo<br>
cafepress store the source for
shirts? What is the best
source for<br>
the DVDs (is it already
available at some vendors)?<br>
<br>
Branders.com has been
recommended as one source for
USBs with printed<br>
logos, It appears as if 50
4GB drives with logo would
cost roughly<br>
$450. Are there other
recommendations for USB
sources? Any that have<br>
a good track record for
bootable USBs?<br>
<br>
Other than writing this list,
what is the process to request
marketing<br>
funds?<br>
