Most of chapters' money already come from the foundation annual fundraiser either as FDC or grants program grants....
And they should budget that income and use appropriately, no? The previous comment makes it sounds they just want the foundation to keep handing money anytime someone wants it.
its not a matter of money anyways, the IT of Wikimania (at least scholarship / registration) is already paid by a Wikimedia chapter (Wikimedia CH), so it IS budgeted, paid for and everything. The issue here was just planning of ressources / proper use of the ressources. The setup was just never intented to bear the load of all people in all projects in any languages clicking on a Central Notice, that's all. If we knew before, we could have handled. In this case we could've even avoided the load without increasing IT ressources / budget.
