However, we developed the entire procedure just the two days during our ongoing sprint here at S. Michele. A kind of race condition, I admit that...

I agree with that. See [1] ("Send the URL of the new page to the
GRASS-PSC mailing list (requires subscription to post there). Do that
at least 2 weeks before the meeting starts"). In this case we could do
last exception (since the procedure is still in progress, see [1]).
What do you think? Thanks, Martin

Thank you Martin. I think I was misunderstood here. My comment wasn't
related to funding request, rather making a point on good practice when
organising community events, whether or not asking funding. For the event
in object, Markus already clarified that is a special situation, and sounds
good to me. For the records I want to clarify what I meant.
I think it's important that when a community event is organised, it's
advertised in the ML, and in the wiki page there is clear information on
how to join and possibly how to interact from remote, making it clear that
everyone who wish to contribute is welcome. I understand that in some cases
it's unlikely that more people will join. However, this makes important
difference to people who read it, because is a sign that GRASS project is
open for everyone to join and contribute, and moreover is in continuous
development. I have always appreciated the GRASS community for being
inclusive. And showing transparently what is going on during community
sprints would also attract more sponsorship when needed.

Agreed - but we are not speaking about a "community event" here. > I understand that in some cases > it's unlikely that more people will join.

Of course in case of a community sprint. Please note that we discuss something else here (unfortunately the wrong subject line was chosen!): https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_GIS_contributors_meetings_in_San_Michele/February_2016 --> "contributors meeting" This is something slightly different, of a rather local scale. In this particular case we cannot host too many people (I assume likewise not in similar cases as Raleygh and Solany) and institution internal procedures are rather complicated for people who have never been visiting our institute. Just to disentangle the two types of meeting. HTH, Markus ___ grass-psc mailing list grass-psc@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-psc

However, I can see that some events might be by invitation only for different reasons (location restrictions or focus of the event). I think both have their place and I think the one focused on a specific group of developers is quite important. Perhaps this is something which should be in the application form.
