GeoServer Budget 2023
GeoServer had good success with GeoServer Budget 2022 with a combination of OSGeo budget allocation and incomming Sponsorship (GitHub, PayPal, Direct). As a result we accomplished one of our key objectives identified in the budget (Updating to Log4J2.)
We also encountered several security issues which were expensive in both time and money - resulting in a separate recommendation of an "OSGeo Security Initiative".

This is a disruptive change request from the Apache Foundation for the GeoTools ecosystem requiring participation from affected projects including GeoServer.
2023 OSGeo Budget Request
The GeoServer PSC requests a 2022 budget of $5500.
This is intended to cover:
- $500: Operational budget to assist any team activities
- $5000: Refactor org.opengis package use (cross project activity)
The steering committee is looking to raise funds against key technical challenges:
- Security Issues: we wish to have budget on hand in event it is needed (starting from existing funds).
Code sprint:
- If we have an opportunity to setup code sprint to coordinate org.opengis package refactor we will attend
