I guess so, or we rename the entry. Ok, given the time we have I have

@Martin pls enlighten us. Is there a table? I darkly remember some
figures having been sent to this list.

I agree.
For now I have reworked the Wiki pages and added an USD column since
that is the currency we have to report to the OSGeo board.
See

We might actually discuss and vote about this role :-)

I have now updated the OSGeo wiki and sent our 2020 request to the
