Michael,

Hmm, I don't recall discussion of preference for multi-project efforts in
the call last week, though I do recall that being something written into
the "support for code sprints" document a couple years ago and that we
pretty much ignored when supporting the QGIS and GRASS sprints since then.

I do still do feel that an event that is multi-project is a better fit for
OSGeo funding than a single-project event but that is only a moderately
influencing criteria in my books.

Best regards,
