Hi all,
We are planning our first event for the Irish chapter of OSGeo -
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ireland for May this year.
We hope to get around 30 attendees, and will be running some workshops
and discussions. I have found the following links on the OSGeo wiki:
* https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Event_Management
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ireland>
* http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Material_Samples
<https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Ireland>
A question which is not answered in the above is what other local
chapters do with regards to financing these events. We need to book a
hotel conference suite - do most chapter's create bank accounts? Or do
the organisers pay costs directly?
Also what happens if there is a shortfall in funds (I'm guessing the
event is cancelled or the organisers make up the difference), or
alternatively a surplus?
Finally I have been trying to register to edit the wiki to create an
initial event page at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/ - however it has been
a couple of weeks and I have received no reply/confirmation. Is there
anyway to see what has happened to this application?
Regards,
Seth
