Dissolve the Finance committee as inactive

JG Jody Garnett Public Seen by 346

The finance committee has been active for a number of years, the board has taken on this responsibility for 2015, 2016 and 2017.

The finance committee was established in 2007 to "oversee and manage all financial aspects of OSGeo as an organisation."

For more details please see https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Finance_Committee

This discussion recognizes the committee as inactive, and withdraws the committee mandate listed above.

I have reworded this motion from our IRC meeting as any future finance committee can apply for a mandate as part of being reformed.

Passing this motion will require the following commitment:
- updating the wiki page as inactive (for example see here )
- the board taking on responsibility for 2018 budget
