=== 5) Sponsoring FOSS4G 2018 ===
Discussion on how to attend foss4g:
* Normally as a host we coordinate a booth with the local chapter in the region hosting the event. As part of providing seed funding, this has not been a financial issue previously.
* In this case we will need to purchase booth space, as we lack both a local chapter, and an agreement with the LOC with respect to OSGeo physical presence
* Review sponsorship options: https://2018.foss4g.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/FOSS4GSponsorshipProposition.pdf
* Gold sponsorship provides 10x10 booth for 8k, includes two tickets
* Discussion on tradeoff / hosting / sponsoring etc...
** willing to sponsor? we did not state any expectation of a free pass / presence. 8k sponsorship would be the smallest "seed" ever provided.
** wishing to negotiate? we are a hosting organization lending our name to the event
* recommendation 1) sponsor/negotiate this year 2) write down rules/expecations for subsequent foss4g events (see expectations with foss4gna)
Action:
* todo: Write expectations for physical presence at FOSS4G events
MOT4 secure exhibitor space for foss4g global, gold sponsorship 10x10 area
