Thanks Marc, added your email to the wiki here:

https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2017#Marketing_Committee

Please review, I may of missed some of the breakdown.

My understanding is:

* 25k (BC) for "normal" committee activities - unclear to me if budget is
carried over from 2016 for this?
* 50k (A) for website/logo reboot
