Makes sense. I understand that you wish to be involved in both
events, which would be a good thing.<br>
But that for future events you will have a clean slate for
proposing how contracts can be set up.<br>

Cameron, it seems clear that the teams in Nottingham <b>&
Minneapolis</b> are well down the path of arranging what
they need so perhaps our discussion is more forward looking.
Please confirm you feel the same way?<br>
<br>
If so, perhaps we might take a look at the services and the
lessons learned from past events and tailor it to what might
be preferred for future events. For example, perhaps in the
scope, section B, items 6 & 7 (prospectus &
solicitation), and 8 (website) might make sense to include?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>

you are probably aware, for the International event
in Denver, GITA and OSGeo agreed to a fixed cost
contract for all services provided. I believe the
effective percentage charge was in the ballpark of
30% of profit. For the upcoming North American
event, SharedGeo and OSGeo agreed to a highly
flexible contract which allows for tailoring of
services as determined by the Local Organizing
Committee. Consequently, the payment concept is
cost plus 3%. Both approaches have pluses and
minuses. I think the GITA model probably makes
sense for the international event, whereas the
flexible approach is probably a better model for
regional events.</span></p>
