Thanks Marc,

efforts, and someone in Massachusetts (but not really active with the
BLOC),
Dear All,
With my 'Marketing-hat' on, I have followed this thread with interest and
growing apprehension. As is often the case with this type of
discussion-thread: everyone makes a serious point, but we are jointly still
far away from a solution. The good thing: more and more of us seem to care

Dear Maxi,
First of all thanks for your raising concerns over this. And I’d like to share
my thoughts on this with you & others.

between ‘hosted by OSGeo’ and ‘presented by OSGeo’ and even ‘organised by

As a OSGeo charter member and as someone who had a very small supporting
role in organizing a past FOSS4G-NA, I have seen a glimpse of the enormous
amount of effort it takes to successfully organize a conference. In
addition to all the normal conference logistics, FOSS4G has the additional

Hi Guido, thanks for your constructive contribution.

Good morning folks,
First, I have no problem making adjustments to the website. It's not a big
deal and can be done rather quickly.
That said, I am a bit frustrated and disheartened by this conversation. The
tone to me feels aggressive and discounts the reality of the work that the
LOC has put in
Well, I am a part of the community, and I don't agree, not with this point of
view and not with how similar conversations keep recurring. This is not the
OSGeo that I recognize anymore, for this one seems more concerned with how it
is perceived than what it does.
I'm outta here …

Hi,
I also agree with Maxi.
I think the point we have to care about is that OSGeo is visible
prominently on the F4G-conference-website and also during the
conference. We put a strong focus on OSGeo-presence in 2016.

+1 Andrea,
this was my intention: not produce additional costs but fix ASAP what is
possible (e.g.: website)
given that the board and the community agree with my point of view :-)

Hi all,
I completely agree with Massimiliano. There is a huge difference
between host and sponsor.
That said, I understand Brad's points and also would never want for
this to end in additional costs.
But this should be considered as something to keep well in mind.
Regards,
Andrea
On Mon,
As a (nominal) Charter Member, I personally couldn't care about this issue. As
long as everyone involved is for the same higher purpose, who is sponsoring who
or supporting what is just details. Move on and focus on the bigger tasks.

Maxi are you concerned about the impression being listed on the sponsors
page provides? The board has never approved a "gold sponsorship", it looks
like this was something negotiated on the conference-dev list as part of
accepting the proposal.
With respect to OSGeo taking financial risk, and bein
