Hi,
Some may have heard that I've been planning the Bolzano GTK+ Hackfest.
Well, given the economy, we are canceling that plan for now.
The global economy or the GNOME Foundations economy?
Well, the two are not really separate. Last year we raised over 80% of the
GTK+ hackfest expenses from the advisory board members, and many companies
paid for airfare of their employees going to the hackfest. This year we
failed to do the former, and I expect the latter also being an issue for many
of the companies.
And the foundation budget is also tight this year. We don't want to dip into
our cash reserves too much. Stormy and J5 are working on a financial report
and budget for the year which will better explain the foundation numbers.
