I guess that = means we don't have a big need for outside funds at the moment. I'll put in a req= uest for 1000 USD for miscellaneous procurements during 2020. /Kristian From: PROJ <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Kristian Evers Sent: 6. januar 2020 11:08 To: [email protected] Subject: [PROJ] Budget for 2020 All, The OSGeo board is asking projects to submit their budgets for 2020 [0]. Th= is is the first time PROJ is able to receive funding directly from OSGeo. Since we be= en able to run without a budget for 30+ years I don't expect that we need much this= year but I would encourage you all to suggest ways we can improve the project by= means of OSGeo funding. Initially 2000 USD is allotted all projects but projects = are allowed to request more or less than that. I expect that we will fall in the "less"= part of that statement. Especially since our main expenses are continuous integration an= d git-lfs support on GitHub, both of which are planned to be covered directly by OSGe= o as they are cross-project costs. I have a few suggestions myself: 1. Payment for proj.org - as far as I know this is done on a charity = basis by either Howard Butler or Paul Ramsey 2. Maintenance of project infrastructure such as continuous integratio= n, GitHub bots, etc. Things break from time to time and fixing them is ofte= n times very tedious. A candidate for this category would be establishing a= new backporting bot since the old one stopped supporting our use cases. 3. Travel expenses for code sprints or FOSS4G 4. Merchandise - we've got a new logo, I think that it is only fitting= that it get put on stickers! The budget has to be submitted by January 13th [1] so please don't hold you= r suggestions back to long.
