initial motion

Would you prefer to close this and re-open with the amendment we voted on the board meeting or move to another motion?

Angelos Tzotsos Thu 2 Mar 2017
Basically the amendment is what Venka proposed "The extra 5k would be reallocated from the board travel budget to the website/re-branding budget"

Angelos Tzotsos Thu 2 Mar 2017
I am going to close the last proposal and re-open with the amendment we voted.

As noted in the meeting this budget reflects a sponsorship target of 5k; this is based on some verbal agreements (but as always reflects a risk until we invoice). What we can do to help here is reach out to organizations that we know that are interested in OSGeo performing more outreach.
