[Board] [QGIS UserConf 2019] Financial support request no more necessary!

[Luigi Pirelli]

Hi OSGeo board

we are closing all financial aspects related with QGIS User Conf 2019 in A
Coruña

Still waiting for Municipality refund they promised, but without this money
we still are in active with 1778€

so We can safely avoid to use the 3000€ OSGeo sponsorship you put in the
budget for 2019. IMHO can be used to finance other OSGeo events.

thank you to offer financial support. We were able to organize the event
with less worry.

regards

Luigi Pirelli

p.s.ñ in days we'll publish all video of the conference
