      <p>How about asking for 9k €, which would be equal to a large

              Dear OSGeo project members and committees,<br>
              <br>
              Over the previous years, OSGeo has been proud to support a
              growing <br>
              number of project events, such as code sprints, developer
              meetings, and <br>
              user conferences.<br>
              <br>
              OSGeo is reaching out to all committees, including project
              steering <br>
              committees, to help plan our budget for 2020.<br>
              <br>
              As in last year, the board is discussing about assigning a
              starting <br>
              budget of 2000$ to all graduated projects who have
              reported to the board <br>
              the last 12 months (e.g. during the AGM or directly to a
              board meeting).<br>
              <br>
              For projects with more of a plan (to pursue a specific
              goal) projects <br>
              are welcome to send a more detailed request for approval
              (see detailed <br>
              budget requests from 2019 e.g. <br>
              <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019</a>)<br>
              <br>
              A good idea is to focus on OSGeo participation, for
              example attending <br>
              the AGM or OSGeo code sprint. Also keep in mind OSGeo
              goals as an <br>
              organization, (e.g. interoperability goal: CITE compliance
              or <br>
              participation developing new standards)<br>
              <br>
              We would like to ask you to help us with budget proposals
              to assist your <br>
              project. This will help us set aside a realistic amount of
              funding.<br>
              <br>
              Please add your project info to the budget draft at:<br>
              <br>
              <a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2020" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2020</a><br>
              <br>
              ideally by Dec 30 ahead of our next board meeting.<br>
              <br>
              When making a budget request please keep in mind the
              vision and goals of <br>
              our foundation, along with any obligations you wish to
              meet.<br>
              <br>
              Thank you.<br>
              <br>
              On behalf of the OSGeo Board,<br>
