I think that the internet sponsorship is a good one. I also think that supporting travel for volunteer members to relevant meetings or to attend courses might also be desirable (e.g., tabitha's travel to SF, the open source accreditation, etc come to mind). Also, replacement parts sometimes need to be purchased. <br>
<br>I would almost argue that a kitty fund that is available as priorities emerge might be a good way to go, with the group (and perhaps some external assessor) creating priority lists/justification for spending. <br><br>

Hi all,<br><br>I would like some input on funding applications. There has been no response from the email I sent out about 6 weeks ago. Does anyone have any ideas on what we as a team should be seeking financial support for? My strong preference is for 3G internet sponsorship.<br>
