One thing that has been a trouble with requests for printing USB sticks - is a single point of contact, during my time here I have seen requests made to:
1) OSGeo Live directly - for obvious reasons 2) The OSGeo board, who delayed so long in answering sticks were never made 3) The Marketing committee, not a bad option it would be good if it could be like "printables" something that could be requested in a clear / consistent fashion. Problem is marketing used it's budget this year .... I would strongly recommend obtaining budget for this activity (so it is not a scramble). If you are interested in putting together an osgeo-in-a-box kit for events please talk to Astrid on the marketing email list where I hope we will be pursuing the idea for 2018. -- Jody Garnett On 20 October 2017 at 11:44, Cameron Shorter <cameron.shor...@gmail.com> wrote: > OSGeo-Live community, > > As per below, the OSGeo Board is asking us if we'd like to request money > from the upcoming budget. > > One request we regularly have from the community is to source OSGeo-Live > USBs.
