Subject: [Projects] OSGeo Budget 2019 for projects.
To: 


Dear OSGeo project members,

Over the previous years, OSGeo has been proud to support a growing
number of project events, such as code sprints, developer meetings, and
user conferences.

OSGeo is reaching out to all committees, including project steering
committees, to help plan our budget for 2019.

This year, the board is discussing about assigning a starting budget of
2000$ to all graduated projects who have reported to the board the last
12 months (see https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/osgeo/todo/issues/11).

For projects with more of a plan (to pursue a specific goal) projects
are welcome to send a more detailed request for approval (e.g.
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GvSIG_Budget_2019)

A good idea is to focus on OSGeo participation, for example attending
the AGM or OSGeo code sprint. Also keep in mind OSGeo goals as an
organization, (e.g. interoperability goal: CITE compliance or
participation developing new standards)

We would like to ask you to help us with budget proposals to assist your
project. This will help us set aside a realistic amount of funding.

Please add your project info to the budget draft at:

https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2019

ideally by January 14 ahead of our January board meeting.

When making a budget request please keep in mind the vision and goals of
our foundation, along with any obligations you wish to meet.

Thank you and best wishes,

On behalf of OSGeo Board,

Angelos

yes, ok.

OSGeo-SAC has recently setup
https://nextcloud.osgeo.org/

which would be an ideal place to maintain the budget.
I could suggest to add the Collabora extention
(https://nextcloud.com/collaboraonline/) for shared document editing,
then we would be settled.

numbers to get automatic balance.


Nice :-) Martin


Looks nice but how to protect from random vandalism?



Yes, this is only for proof-of-concept. If we want a publicly available, 
but read-only spreadsheet we will have to go to a provider offering a 
password-protected solution.


The other option would be to see with OSGeo whether the provision of 
some only accounting software within the OSGeo infrastructure would be 
worth the effort, now that more projects are into the money-raising 
business and OSGeo distributes funds to projects systematically. Sounds 
like a perfect use-case of shared ressources within an umbrella 
organisation to me.

Hi

Well, I don't think the actual amount spent for travel grants was

2957.28€, as IIRC, Nikos never claimed his 225.00€, so total expenses
would be 2838.28€, and so we should have

3630.74€ - 2838.28€ = 792,46€

left. On the bank account we have 887,46€, so either some reimbursements
still need to happen (but I'm not aware of any), or there is some error
in the calculations somewhere.



I was not reimbursed either, but instead donated that for beers next time :)
(IIRC, was something like 90 euros or so from train tickets)


Thanks - we should keep track of that as well!


This actually reduces our accounting error to about 5€ (negative now, 
i.e. 5 € are not accounted for), which is probably an acceptable error rate.
