 FOSS4G-NA is what prompted our first call.  So far we have funded
 FOSS4G-NA, FOSS4G, and Oceania F4G.  Our initial plan (noted below)
 was to have a second call in June.  We didn't do the second call in
 June (which would have also allowed FOSS4G to request more funds to
 increase their TGP).  We should do a second call as we planned, even
 if late.

 I hope that other events beyond Oceania apply and I would prioritize
 first time applications above second time, although total amount is
 also worth considering.

 The TGP is great and helps bring more people to FOSS4G!  The more
 people we can help attend FOSS4G; the better.

 We planned a second call in June which none of us remembered to
 initiate.  We should launch that second call now.  I hope that we get
 several applications and can help more people attend FOSS4G.
