[postgis-devel] Fwd: [TOSprint] 2012 Codesprint update (some good news!!)

[Paul Ramsey]

Honestly, really want to have a good PostGIS crew... me and Olivier so
far, Chris is tentative maybe he'll flip over into non-tentative? Good
chance to knock out the final dents in 2.0 and push it out the door...

Fellow sprinters:

Two new sponsors signed up this week: OpenGeo ($1500) and Azavea
($750), for a total of $12000 in sponsorship money so far.  This is
outstanding, thanks to all!

With sponsorships plus registration fees plus the 2010 surplus, we
have now reached the breakeven point.  Any additional registration
money we get can be used to reduce the overall costs for everyone.

We have 10 paid attendees right now, with 2 more committed but not
paid, for a total of 12.  We have room for 8 more (and if we got more
than that we'll double-up or something, would be a nice problem to
have).  If we got those 8 more, the rate would potentially drop from
$525 each down to $335 -- a $190 savings!

So, PLEASE help get the word out and get folks to come play with us in
Seattle.  The holidays are coming, and then it'll be only one month
away...
