Future
Max's notes to himself when the FY10 budget planning process starts:
- Renew the LWN Fedora subscription: $2,000 (FY10+).
- Fedora College Scholarships & Travel: $6,000 (FY10), $9,000 (FY11), $12,000 (FY12+).
- Specific, separate line items for Fedora media (CDs, DVDs, USBs) in Q1 and Q3 ($10k each would be nice).
- Need to do a better job of insulating FAMSCo's budget from RH travel costs.
- 2-4 new laptops for team in FY10 if possible.
- What was the breakdown of events per quarter last year? Do some quarters have more than others?
- Intern money for Q1. What will we do the Q2 summer quarter? Q3 and Q4?
- CD/DVD duplicators in various regions of the world?
