            <br>
            The board has done our bit with travel grant budget and
            mandate. <br>
            <br>
            Speaking for myself (not OSGeo or conference committee) I
            would prefer if we stick with early bird discount pricing to
            avoid setting a complicated precedent for subsequent events
            to follow. <br>
            <br>
            If the LOC is feeling confident you can donate or credit the
            travel grant program an appropriate amount. <br>
            <br>
            I know on the books it looks the same, but this way we allow
            the travel grants to reach more people this year while
            avoiding setting a moving target for fundraising.<br>
