I set a couple targets on the GSIP-176, however they are only a wild-guess
(as we would still need anyone to respond to an RFP call).

I have updated the GSIP page to make the target/progress more clear:

- baseline: 5000 budget from osgeo
- target 1: 10000 funding raising
- target 2: 15000 funding target

Basically if we do not meet the first target 1 I do not think the PSC
should bother issuing an RFP. By the same token if we get a bunch of
proposals in outside of our range we may not proceed.

I had several chats on this subject at foss4g many groups were hopeful of
skipping cite compatibility for WFS/WMS/WCS/WPS and wanting to focus on
openapi. While I like the enthusiasm it will be some time yet before those
standards are ready, and even when they are we would like to keep
supporting WFS/WFS/WCS/WPS.
