Yes, I will be applying for my visa soon... if it gets approves I'll be at
FOSDEM as I will also be giving a talk.
I will be more than happy to join the stand for Sugar Labs.

They most certainly can.<br>
<br>
As a new org, with a new set of responsibilities, what we need is the<br>
following:<br>
1. Strategic Planning<br>
* Where do we see ourselves in 3, 5, and 10 years<br>
* Marketing Strategy (which can include conferences, etc.)<br>
* Business Model (what are our revenue sources and how we get them,<br>
what are the inputs and outputs for our resources--time included)<br>
2. A Budget<br>
* Given our current situation, what can we afford<br>
* Based on different assumptions, what might we be able to afford if<br>
we meet our goals.<br>
<br>
This is a top-down approach. A bottom-up approach is "I found an<br>
awesome opportunity, let's go for it." I have found, through my<br>
experience, that both are important.<br>
<br>

<br>
We should come up with a budget and allocate resources for things like<br>
conferences, which I think we all agree are important. However, I<br>
advocate strongly that it be in the context of a larger plan.<br>
<br>
Whoever wants to help us with these tasks, I am all for hearing your<br>
input.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Devin<br>
