[OSGeo-Conf] Board Digest, Vol 107, Issue 16

Tue Aug 25 12:50:48 PDT 2015

Hi all,

what we need is a backup for the requested 100k Euro. And yes, we need 
some seed nmoney to cover some billsfor contracts we have to sign the 
next weeks - but that will be money included in this 100k - so if OSGeo 
stands for 100k and we require seed money from let's say 50k, this is 
already part of this 100k - as said, see the sheet in SVN and you see, 
that my calculation is based on the full calculation (as far as we have 
it for now - but I am sure, that the whole finance planning is based on 
very, very careful assumptions, it considers sponsorship only with 40k 
for instance...)

so far, Till
