Senza polemica: sono l'unico a pensare che i DVD siano tecnologia obsoleta?
Saluti.

Regarding whether we limit OSGeo support to big FOSS4G events only, or
we also support emerging 1 day local events and FOSS4g steams within
bigger conferences, I'd argue that the smaller events find it harder to
get their hands on money, would benefit more from a little injection of
financial support, and are often reaching out and breaking into new
communities.
For reference, you might want to assess which of the 45 OSGeo related
events from 2012 would be deserving of sponsorship, and which you'd say
no to.

Hi Cameron,
I have to
admit that you caught me off-guard, the list is more
impressive than I thought before reviewing it. :-)
I still find that having to deal with funding DVDs for so many events
can be an issue. It is not just about processing micro-payments, you
also need to collect and archive proofs that the expense you are
reimbursing is legitimate (i.e. receipts) for OSGeo's accounting. I have
seen how complicated this can be with just the Local chapter starter
kits, imagine doing this for ~100 DVD print runs all around the world.
