Hey- So, motivated by the OSGeo Project Sponsorship program, Chris did a great job of putting together a document that describes the potential sponsorship opportunities with OpenLayers.
http://svn.openlayers.org/project/sponsorship/sponsoring This document describes a few things: 1) our intent to seek sponsorship via the OSGeo Project Sponsorship program; 2) high level goals for use of sponsorship funds; and 3) details on uses, benefits, and the process. John has raised questions about having the OSGeo manage our sponsorship program versus having some other entity manage the program. I think we have agreed to treat this question separately - to entertain suggestions on alternative methods of managing the sponsorship program after we agree on the core goals. I would like to call a vote specifically on the document linked above. The issue we're voting on looks something like this: If we agree to pursue sponsorship for OpenLayers via the OSGeo Project Sponsorship program, the PSC believes that the sponsorship document referenced [1] adequately describes the goals, intended uses, and potential benefits of project sponsorship. Thanks for voting. My vote is +1.
