<div dir="ltr">+1 for making this print run for FOSS4G 2019. <br><div><br></div><div>I agree with both Jody and Cameron. I know that our annual OSGeoIE symposium is small but every year we distribute the OSGeoLive USBs. They are used in the workshops at the symposium. However, it is a significant budget item each year not to mention the time required to copy the image to ~50 - 80 USB keys. </div><div><br></div><div>Perhaps it is an idea for the future to do a larger print run of OSGeoLive USBs (with content on if possible)?

<br>
I was in contact with Vasile Craciunescu from BLOC FOSS4G 2019.<br>
<br>
They would like to ask OSGeo whether we could provide USB sticks with <br>
OSGeoLive for FOSS4G 2019. They suggest to produce 500 sticks and give <br>
them to interested participants. We even could produce more and give <br>
them to other local events.<br>
<br>
Last year we passed 500 sticks in Dar es Salaam at FOSS4G 2018 and it <br>
was a big success.<br>
<br>
What do you think? Would it be possible to take the marketing budget to <br>
produce the sticks?<br>

<br>
We can spend 22.600 $ in 2019 and we did not spend much yet.<br>
