[SAC] Vote request to extend Sysadmin Contract 2019-I amount for another $5000

[Alex M]

I'm +1, pending discussion of specific tickets to target - I don't think
all the ones listed are important enough to go on the contract. But that
we have other tasks which might be.

Just a few notes:
* This will us up the rest of our 2019 contract budget, we can ask the
board for more if we feel it's necessary.
* I also think we should discuss if want to reserve a % of these hours
for "urgent response" tasks or if it should all be pre-determined tickets.

Based on the vote we should move forward drawing up the exact contract
for signing.

Thanks,
Alex
