[OSGeo-Discuss] Funding code Sprints

[Astrid Emde (OSGeo)]

Hello Maxi, hello board,

thanks for your discussion about funding code sprints. It is great to 
have a budget to support sprints.

We (from the FOSS4G 2016 team) are close to ask you for funding the code 
sprint before and after the FOSS4G 2016 in Bonn.

We are in progress to build up the "ask for sponsoring page" here.

It would be great to support OSGeo project code sprints like Bolsena, 
QGIS dev-meetings, ctribe meeings, OSGeo board meetings and so on all 
over the world to support the community, to let OSGeo people get to know 
each other, to improve the OSGeo projects.

OSGeo board - thank for your work!

Astrid
