[Board] [Projects] [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo Budget 2021

[Jody Garnett]

With the topic of sponsorship also in the mix perhaps we can add a column
for "donations/sponsorship" for the different projects and committees.
This would communicate the budget each is working with, the commitment from
osgeo, and the financial support from their community.
