Hello FF, First, let's share what we have already. Also, if he is not yet here, we should invite Mike Dolan and Laura Kempke to join this list. I have attached the last draft I saw of the LF budget proposal, plus various other artifacts that were presented and discussed last time around. Budget proposal: https://docs.google.com/a/linuxfoundation.org/spreadsheets/d/1-3686Xb_jf4FtxdX8Mus9UwIxUb2vI_ppmJV5GnXcLg/edit?usp=sharing >From Laura Kempke: > A few things to note: > > 1/ Column B includes basic expenses.

Most of those services can be scaled up or down, and of course you can go with some and leave others. My objective in including them is to let you know they're available if you need them. > > 3/ The legal expenses are placeholders. > > 4/ I assumed $300K in revenue. > > Would it be helpful to discuss this early next week? Attached: slides that Mike Dolan presented on the value of the LF in December 2015. Old, but potentially relevant. Thanks, Dave.
