; Budget allocation
Only expenditure committed as at 9 Jun 2012 is towards the Editathon, and the only cost there is travel/subsistence for participants as JISC are co-funding it. Estimate £1,000 given that some participants will require travel and overnight accomodation.

This FY we can expect a further 2 similar Editathon events, allow £2,000 for each as they will probably involve more travel and venue hire.

£6,000 for a high-quality digitisation of a high-priority public domain resource.

Leaving £19,000 for opportunities yet to be identified. It is possible that this will be moved forward to 2013, where we may be able to work on having a WWI-focused WIR.
