HV Open was created 15 years ago to provide a forum to discuss and promote open source and open technologies in the Hudson Valley. When we share we grow together. They have a few expenses of the course of the year. These include about $200 for their meetup subscription, $100 for stickers and the like, web hosting (which is contributed as part of an existing server) and recently they contracted a local designer to do the new HV Open logo. There are also the occasional dives into cables for presenting, and they’re still trying to figure out the right audio gear to properly mic speakers (especially in the constraints of Rocky 300). In the past these were paid for out of pocket by Sean Dague. During the rebrand folks asked who paid for stuff, and if they could contribute in some way.
