Roland Olbricht
I'm drolbr as a mapper and volunteer to develop software for OpenStreetMap since 2008. Currently I am serving as the treasurer of the OpenStreetMap Foundation. I'm otherwise best known for the software Overpass API. But I'm also interested in mapping for pedestrian routing. In addition, I'm at the moment serving in the Engineering Working Group and as a OSMF board member.
For a day job I'm developing software for public transit. While my employer and our customers profit a lot from OpenStreetMap, my actual job is doing the software for ticket vending.

Session
The OpenStreetMap Foundation owns the OpenStreetMap hardware and trademarks. It uses money to keep the platform running.
The Foundation sees the positive impact of current paid work, but has not yet to funds to sustain all that activity. In this workshop we ask the attendants as members of the OpenStreetMap community for advice how to raise the funds.
