[Board] 2013 Budget approval

[Cameron Shorter]

In line with Jeff's comments on the spreadsheet, I'd suggest that we 
should allocate money toward unforeseen expenses and sponsorship 
opportunities.
Other professional Services, in line with OSGeo priorities as approved 
by the board : $2K to $5K.  (Suggest budget $5K)

Unforseen and worthy sponsorship opportunities which align with OSGeo 
priorities, as approved by the board: $5K

PS, I don't have write access to the board spreadsheet, so can't add my 
comments there.
