Dear chairs, following tonight's meeting, I've committed the latest budget proposal. I would *really* appreciate if you could review and approve this within the next 10 days and recommend to Lucas to do the same. We need to make some decisions that require an approved budget *this* month.
The notable changes I made in response to the decisions in the meeting were: 1. Add a new item for travel sponsorship of DebConf-only volunteers (+3k) and re-allocate funds to meet that. I took 5k from video because so far I met noone that could explain how 10k would be used by the video team. If new hardware needs to be bought, I suggest that this be done on Debian funds where it can be properly amorticised. This means an additional 2k were freed up. 2. 1k of those freed up 2k went to the invited speakers budget, as they are expected to cover room&board themselves. 3. 500 € went to a new budget line for post-conf expenses relating to the DC15 legal entity. This is a new item, undiscussed, and I want it. 4. 500 € went into unforeseen expenses. 5. Given that we managed to acquire a platinum sponsor just before the meeting, I updated the worst-case expense scenario and brought it closer to the base case. 18k of those 20k went to travel (see above, it was raised from 15k to 33k). The rest was spread into incidentals, insurance, and consultancy costs. If there are open questions, please find me on IRC. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@debconf.org> @martinkrafft : :' : DebConf orga team `. `'` `- DebConf15: Heidelberg, Germany: http://debconf15.debconf.org DebConf16: Cape Town: https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf16
