[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo sponsorship opportunities for 2018

[Jody Garnett]

Thanks Till, I grabbed the list from the wiki (
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Sponsorship_Opportunities_2018) and
finally made the news announcement. See earlier email discussion
<https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2018-January/036971.html>.

To be cross listed sponsors need to ask, there is an example of just such
email on the how to sponsor
<https://www.osgeo.org/about/how-to-become-a-sponsor/> website page.
