Frank,

Thanks for posting the budget. It was an interesting read. I was
impressed with the fact that the Foss4G conference appears to pay for
itself.

Landon,

The 2008 budget might help you see what we plan to spend money on.

Hopefully the 2007 annual report will be finished soon, and it
will include a financial report on spending during 2007.

Best regards,
