Would you be able to officially submit the budget at
https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/wiki/MapServer-2025-Budget to

This motion has been open a week, with +1 from Steve, Even and me.

Hi all,
The OSGeo Board will be meeting on the 28th of January to discuss
the 2025 budget. I propose we submit a request for $5000 to help
support the MapServer project.
Last year an upper-limit of $2,500 was set for projects, but this
has typically been $5,000 in previous years.
The development items are to help kick-start implementing OGC
Maps API and try to get MapServer 8 OGC certified. Additional
funding sources will be sought to try and get these items completed.
In terms of trying to raise additional funding:
- A proposal for a grant application was sent to NLnet Foundation
(https://nlnet.nl). We should know if this has been successful or
not in early February.
- Even also put in application last February to
https://nlnet.nl/bluehatsprize/2024/ (unfortunately without a
successful response).
- I emailed the user's mailing list with a link to the
sponsorship page. It looks like there was a problem with the
mailing list archives, as December 2024 is missing from
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapserver-users/. The email was
sent on December 8th with the title "MapServer Budget and
Sponsorship" - so I'm not sure if anyone received it.
I have added the funding request and fund-raising efforts to the
2025 budget page at
https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/wiki/MapServer-2025-Budget
and propose to submit the budget to a vote, starting with my +1.
If we want to discuss further, we could maybe have a PSC meeting
next Thursday (23rd of January), prior to the OSGeo Board meeting
the following Tuesday.
