<div dir="ltr">Dear All,<div><br></div><div>A quick update and canvas of opinions on OSGeo:UK donations to software projects. We made a healthy surplus after FOSS4G UK, so prompted by <a href="http://blog.qgis.org/2016/11/19/lets-make-a-big-funding-push-for-qgis-3-0/">http://blog.qgis.org/2016/11/19/lets-make-a-big-funding-push-for-qgis-3-0/</a>, we'd like to sponsor QGIS, potentially as a silver sponsor (see link for details). We're also looking at ways in which we could make a similar contribution to PostGIS although that's not as straightforward.</div><div><br></div><div>We have further plans to offer bursaries for FOSS4G 2017, but more on that when we've firmed up our ideas there. We're also open to the suggestion of sponsoring events, and again are firming up our criteria for that.</div><div><br></div><div>So basically chaps, what do you think about donations to QGIS and PostGIS? Are there any other projects that you'd like to see us contribute to? Ideas on and off list welcome. We'll take no response to mean everyone's happy with our plans.</div><div><br></div><div>Furthermore, I'm happy to announce that we have committed to sponsor Rasters Revealed on the 21st February 2017- which looks like a super event. See <a href="https://rastersrevealed.net/">https://rastersrevealed.net/</a> for more details!</div><div><br></div><div>All the best</div><div><br></div><div>Jo<br>-- <br><div class="gmail-m_6546044137032421579gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><b></b><b>Jo Cook</b><br>
