Hi all, I'm transferring this mail from Italo about budget and local activities in 2019. Don't hesitate to ask if you have any question. Cheers Sophie
-------- Message transféré -------- Sujet : [libo-marketing-priv] Marketing/Community Budgets for 2019 Date : Thu, 13 Dec 2018 13:15:30 +0100 De : Italo Vignoli <it...@documentfoundation.org> Répondre à : it...@documentfoundation.org Organisation : The Document Foundation Pour : LO Marketing Private <libo-marketing-p...@lists.documentfoundation.org> In order to improve the management of the marketing/community budget for 2019, we ask native language communities to provide the following: 1. A list of objectives you would like to pursue in 2019. Please avoid wishful thinking, and stick to realistic objectives. A few examples: organize a meeting with public administrations to educate them about LibreOffice and ODF; organize a local LibreOffice Conference; reimburse volunteers travelling around the country to present LibreOffice and ODF at local events. 2. For each objective, provide a rationale and a sensible amount of money. Again, we are spending donations money, and we must be extremely cautious both with requests and with approvals. Requests missing a rationale or easy to understand details will not be approved. 3. For requests equal or exceeding 1,000 euro, you must provide the outline of a project, because a large amount of money is probably covering different expenses (people, suppliers, events) and budget approvers should be allowed to have a clear picture of what they approve. Examples of activities which TDF will provide a budget for: 1. community events (aimed at getting face-time for community contributors) 2. marketing activities (aimed at representing the project to the outside world) 3. targeted projects (for instance, promoting LibreOffice in schools) In addition, we ask you to provide a list, if any, of infrastructure related requests, such as - for example - additional computing power or new services for your native language community. The idea is to keep the administrative overhead as low as possible, and have two authorizers responsible for each budget. TDF BoD will provide a budget bucket for marketing and one for community. Budget requests will be associated to the relevant budget, and then approved by budget approvers (according to the availability of funds). As a sample, a request could look like this: ## We'd like to request a 2017 budget of 1000 € for community events and 1500 € for marketing. Expenses we envision are 1. marketing: attendance at XYZ trade show to show LibreOffice to ABC user group (700 € booth costs, 300 € for collaterals and 500 € of travel, totalling to 1500 €), 2. community: a community weekend to discuss tasks and ideas (600 € hotel, 100 € for snacks and 300 € travel, totalling to 1000 €). ## Before sending any budget request, please read carefully TDF policies: Travel: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TDF/Policies/Travel Refunding: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TDF/Policies/Refunding Community Refunding: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TDF/Policies/Community_Refunds Deadline for submissions is January 20, 2019, in order to have amounts approved during FOSDEM meetings.
