[Geo4All] OSGeo 2019 budget discussion

[Suchith Anand]

My suggestion is not to have any other budget needs for GeoForAll (esp. travel budget). It is important for the long term sustainability that we have minimal budget needs. Thanks.


Best wishes,


Suchith

Are there any other things to do? Conferences to attend with GeoForAll partners for example?

Thanks for the information. The only budget request is the OSGeo student Awards that we have been running successfully in the last few years (thanks to colleagues who volunteered to run these competitions at various events). I think we need to ensure that experiences gained from OSGeo Student Awards need to be maintained to provide more OSGeo outreach and recognition for student contributions.

My suggestion to have $3000 for the GeoForAll budget for running the OSGeo student awards competitions ($500 at six FOSS4G related events) for 2019.

If there are no objections to this request , then may I request that Helena, Victoria as the GeoForAll chairs to please formally submit the budget request for the OSGeo student awards to the OSGeo Board for consideration.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Has any thought been given to a GeoForAll budget for 2019? A draft budget is shaping up on the wiki and will be the subject of the next board meeting mid month.

I have seen all kinds of great ideas on this list (many of which require participation rather than money).
