[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo stickers anyone?

Dear Patrick et al

Rest assured; as the one responsible I can only say that our scarce
marketing resources are deployed with careful consideration. 15k only can
do so much for this year. But the time and effort that an increasing number
of people in the Marketing Committee and - most notably - in our community
at large spend is invaluably a lot more than 15k.

If members feel they need funding for outreach and advocacy they are
invited to submit a proposal to the (recently revived) Marketing Committee.
Whether for promotional material (downloadable at OSGeo.org) to support
specific OSGeo related activities or else....that is the committee to
decide. Depending on available budget, expected value added and impact.

To misquote someone wiser than myself;
'We conquer the world, sticker by sticker, laptop by laptop, student by
student, department by department, organisation by organisation, country by
country, continent by continent'
....and it all started with a single sticker ;-)

Have a great weekend y'all.

Marc
