Guess I'll go ahead and toss out the first ideas on this one too. I'll let someone else write the wiki this time around, but here's my list of potential spending priorities:
1 - Legal / Licensing (especially data acquisition @ the state and county government level) 2 - Mapping Party support (getting equipment checkout set up) 3 - User Education & Outreach - (getting local hiking/biking/geocaching clubs involved) 4 - Media outreach (Newspapers & TV stations love to have "human interest" stories like this in reserve for slow news days. Take a look at the geocaching.com weekly newsletter - they have a canned article that gets printed in one form or another several times a week.) 5 - Software development OK, time to retreat to the bunker and watch the fireworks start, Chris On Fri, Dec 18, 2009 at 9:58 AM, SteveC <[email protected]> wrote: > One of the things we did in the beginning of OSMF is say, roughly, what the > budget would be spent on.
