Hi Jeff,

After the problem we faced in 2014 creating working OSGeoLive USB drives for FOSS4G, I propose that we should produce Live USBs massively this year, and send to 2015 events according to estimated demand.
Thoughts?

Best,
Angelos

Hello community!

It's important that we now come up with a budget for the OSGeo
organization for 2015.  This is a great opportunity for committees such
as our Systems Architecture committee, or the Marketing committee, to
request funding to be put aside for spending for specific needs.

Thanks to a nice brief financial report from our Treasurer Mike Smith at
the last Board meeting[1], we know that we have approximately 250,000
USD cash on hand, plus another 100,000 USD to come from Portland FOSS4G
profits shortly.

I have started a template to record our 2015 budget in the wiki[2] and the OSGeo Board will work with committees to update it; please if you have a specific need for funding (servers, marketing materials, anything) speak up here and we would like to put aside the funds for your needs for 2015.

Thanks everyone,
