[OSGeo Finance] Budget

[Ken Tamura]

This is my understanding as well.  The rate increase came from the canadian payroll recommendation which was reasonable given standard cost of living increases.


There was prior discussion in he past that any merit increases would be evaluated annually in the budget process and approved by the board.

I think you're mistaken re. the discussion. It didn't have anything to
do with the dollar since Tyler's salary is set in Canadian funds. This
was strictly based on typical cost of living increases across the
board for payrolls in canada for the previous year.
