     38The growth of the base of project developers is very encouraging, and will hopefully continue.  The coming year is an opportunity to continue to professionalize and community-ize project maintenance reducing the reliance on any one contributor.  I also see this as a year when we need to work to make the projects technical strengths accessible to more projects through continued improvements to language bindings and documentation, and to more end users via easy to use standard binaries (eg. OSGeo4W).

     40I also look forward to more funded maintainer hours available to deal with our bug report backlog, and to ensure timely response to new bug reports.  This will hopefully provide a payback to sponsors, and ensure a continued positive technical reputation for the project.
