[geomoose-psc] Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Projects] OSGeo Budget 2022 - please send your budget requests for approval

[Eli Adam]

FYI, below.  Note that graduated projects that provide an annual report get
allotted the default budget without requesting it.  Let's keep those annual
reports coming and share news of our good work with the community.

Also, our passed budget request,
https://github.com/geomoose/geomoose/wiki/PSC-Meeting-2021-10-15  I've
added that to the wiki as directed below.

It appears that we have a $500 budget this year.  We were previously
wanting to spend some funds but were under the impression that we didn't
have any budgeted.  If anyone wants to revisit that topic, we could pass a
motion on the list (probably well into January so long as we got it
completed before the OSGeo budget process).

Best regards, Eli

* Dear OSGeo project members and committees, OSGeo has been a proud
supporter of project events, code sprints, developer meetings and user
conferences.  Given the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 and 2021 have seen a shift
to virtual events (for example, the OSGeo/OGC/Apache joint sprint in
February 2021, as well as the global FOSS4G event).  It has been
encouraging to see our energy, commitment and perseverance during this
exceptional time. OSGeo continues to execute the annual budget, and is
reaching out to all committees (including Project Steering Committees), to
help plan our budget for 2022. In 2021, the Board assigned an initial
amount of 2000 USD to all graduated projects who have reported to the Board
the last 12 months (e.g. during the AGM or directly to a Board meeting) and
have sent a budget request. For 2022, the Board is planning to continue to
offer a budget to all graduated projects with the exact amount to be
determined. Due to the successful FOSS4G 2021 and less money spent in 2021
we are in the position to support our projects again as before.  To help
navigate the uncertainties ahead in 2022, the Board is planning to have a
budget meeting within January 2022 to review 2021
expenditures, sponsorship, and make financial decisions for the 2022
budget. Please send your detailed requests for approval (see detailed
budget requests from 2021 e.g.
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoServer_Budget_2021
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoServer_Budget_2021>
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoServer_Budget_2021
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoServer_Budget_2021>>) We would like to ask
you to help us with budget proposals to assist your project. This will help
us set aside a realistic amount of funding. Please add your project info to
the budget draft at: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2022
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2022>
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2022
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2022>> ideally by 20 January 2022
in advance of our next Board meeting. When making a budget request please
keep in mind the vision and goals of our Foundation, along with any
obligations you wish to meet. Thank you and Happy New Year! On behalf of
the OSGeo Board, Angelos *
