This as a friendly amendment to the motion from a lurking member
(thanks Jo).

My wording was "can spend this money on their own discretion" but I
did mean to say that it has to be spent on non-consumables (i.e. not
pay for booth space or tickets, etc.).

Cheers,
Arnulf

PS:
Just for the record: In the US tax notion of things OSGeo is actually
not aiming to be charitable anymore (and has so far only been
applying) because the responsible administration over several years
been unwilling or incapabale of processing the required paperwork.
OSGeo will stay a not-for-profit, just not charitable.
