<div dir="ltr">Hi Simon, thanks for chiming in, glad for the opportunity to talk about what's planned, this is why I love to have stuff on an open list :)<div><br></div><div><i>> 1. What numbers do you predict will register?<br></i>It's pretty hard to say, but we had 83 in 2020 and 101 in 2021, and I feel that awareness of open geospatial has grown strongly in WA since then, so we have a good chance of a strong turnout. But the price is a little higher than last time and it's not in the CBD, so these may work against us. Hopefully in the range of ~100, maybe up to 150 if we really smash it. ISPRS is handling registration so our income & expenses aren't directly impacted by rego numbers.</div><div><br><i>> 2. How many registrations does "ISPRS conf rego for hard core volunteers" cover?<br></i>Rego is $100 each (this is handled by ISPRS), so 8 people in the middle scenario. We have a pretty big organising crew but based on previous years, we're guessing that some of them will have their rego covered by someone else. Also some might not have heaps of spare time so we'd have to prioritise the people who pour time & energy into the thing (the "hard cores"). Ideally we would have enough budget to pay for every one of our committee but it feels like a big ask.<br><br><i>> 3. How many registrations does "ISPRS conf rego to support regional WA attendance" cover?<br></i>6 in the middle scenario. The idea here is to cover the cost of rego for some people who are travelling from other parts of WA, to encourage their attendance. It would be based on need, similar to past TGPs (ie. "for people who might otherwise find it difficult to attend").<br><br><i>> 4. Is normal registration for FOSS4G Perth day included in the Early/Standard/Late registration fees for ISPRS?<br></i>Yes, ISPRS delegates are free to join the FOSS4G Perth day and FOSS4G Perth registrants are free to attend all parts of ISPRS on that day. The FOSS4G Perth rego is a one day registration.<br><br><i>> 5. Am I correct that ISPRS pays for venue?<br></i>Yes.</div><div><br><i>> 6. Under other expenses there is domain rego, wouldn't we just use a subdomain under our existing <a href="http://foss4g-oceania.org">foss4g-oceania.org</a> domain?</i><br></div><div>We have an existing web presence at <a href="https://foss4g-perth.org">https://foss4g-perth.org</a>, this has been perfect for us. The cost of domain registration is pretty low, something like $15 a year.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers!<br></div><div>John</div><div><i><br></i></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 27 May 2024 at 04:44, Simon Nitz via Oceania-Board <<a href="mailto:oceania-board@lists.osgeo.org">oceania-board@lists.osgeo.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg-3974311154922665899">

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi OSGeo Oceania board,<u></u><u></u></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I'm submitting the attached proposal on behalf of the FOSS4G Perth 2024 organising committee. As you're already aware, we're planning a small one-day local event in Perth on 23 October as part of the ISPRS TC IV Symposium. We'd love to
have OSGeo Oceania as our conference partner, to help make the event a success and to strengthen bonds between the Perth and regional open geospatial communities.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We'll begin promoting the event in a week's time. It would be great to have an indication of support by then, so we can include OSGeo Oceania as a conference partner from the start. But if it needs to wait until the next board meeting,
that's OK.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If there are any questions at all please let me know, we'd be happy to meet with the board to discuss further if you like.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers!<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
