Future

Items that we need to remember to include in the budget for future years:

  • 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 way of insulating FAMSCo's budget from RH travel costs.
  • 2 new laptops for in FY10?
  • What was the breakdown of events per quarter last year? Do some quarters have more than others?

Max Spevack is the Community Architecture team's CFO.
