[open-development] Location for an open development fringe event after OKFestival

Tue Mar 18 07:59:26 UTC 2014

Hi,

Thanks Claudia for getting this organised. Each active working group has
access to 150 pounds to spend on activities like this. As Open Development
has not spent their allocated budget for this year (which ends in May) we
could potentially combine the budget from this year and next year to
provide a combined total of 300 pounds (360 euros) for the event, which
would be enough for the venue and maybe some (very) light refreshments.

Hope that helps and let me know if the group would be interested in using
the funds in this way!

All the best,
Katelyn
