Oh, I forgot to include one of my* favorite resources for new
Chapters: $500 from the Marketing Committee for an Exhibition Pack,
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Exhibition_Pack.

*The Marketing Committee appears to have varying opinions of what this
should include.  I think it should include a popup banner, some OSGeo
t-shirts, OSGeo Stickers, an OSGeo table runner, table cloth, and
other things that will help the fledgling chapter look official, grow,
and find members.  It appears that most of the members on the
Marketing Committee think that it should included less.

Cheers, Eli
