- Did we come up with any other people it would be useful to approach to join or advise the WG?
- 2019 Partner and Supporter Fundraising call
- Review sample documents in Google Drive
- Can we, effectively, repeat the thrust of the Spring letter?
- If so, what are the Samvera Community achievements, and needs, that we should highlight?
- Would we want to add anything about a wider fundraising call later in the year? And/or: How might we encourage these folks to contribute more. FYI: this call goes to all the Partners (not just those who actually contribute funds) and to a couple of non-Partners who regularly contribute.
- Sponsorship for Samvera Connect
- Review examples of other sponsorship schemes
- Should Connect seek sponsors?
- If so, brainstorm initial list of organizations that we might target
- How would we "sell it to them". (What would they get for their money beyond "feeling good"?)
- Large-scale fundraising
- Brainstorm an initial list of people we think we might approach
- How would we "sell it to them". (What would they get for their money beyond "feeling good"?)

- How might we develop a contributory model from service providers?
- Date of next meeting

2. Would be pulling other people in the org - will approach people as needed or thought of
3. Highlight Hyrax WG releases, losing all the devs in the Hyrax WG, not putting forth more developers, - if you're not giving devs, give money. Can we do that -
combine "ask" - tying the usual contribution - state dependencies - here's all the stuff, if you like the contributions, you should give money or give dev time to support the roadmap
Informal contact or other kinds of messages to particular interests -
Ask goes out in March/ April -
Personal contact - approach to reach out to individuals at institutions - work within BTAA - IU, Mich, Northwestern - director to director peer pressure
A more targeted, personalized approach - contact list of who knows who and who can reach out to whom, have their UL reach out.
What are the aspirations for the year? -
Contribution WG - model
What we want to do with the money - shoot for that amount in the contributions (what we'll do with the money - what does it go to?)
What money will be used for - multi-year commitment ask
4. See notes in " " - need to build positions into that as well. Getting a lot of support as they get it together
5. 2.5% initiative - David Lewis from IUPUI - libraries should give 2.5% to community-based projects supporting infrastructure to open source - what percentage of instutions budget is the library archive https://scholarworks.iupui.edu/handle/1805/14063
Fedora, DuraSpace, Samvera - bundling that gift? Should Samvera community bundle that?
