Hi,
Velimir, Miroslav and I will begin our work on brochure today. We'll
basically use most of the content from the last year's brochure, though
we'll add our own artwork ( blue/yellow contrast). However, we need to
know if the sponsorship packages will be the same as last years?

Hey,
On last meeting we had on December 7th
(http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf11/Meetings) one of the points we
covered was Sponsorship, to be more exact making sponsorship brochures
for DebConf 11, since AFAIK there's no much use of the ones that were
used for DebConf10.
Velimir and I have agreed to get this part done, but we also expressed
that we would need some guidance. To get this guidance, we would need
to ping certain people that have experience with sponsorships. Instead
of pinging certain people individually,
I would like to to make this *official* "ping" for everybody that
could help us with this to please report to actually help us with
this.
We still haven't started working on this task because we need some
major questions answered.
Around New Years for a week or so I'll be spending in Vienna, I was
originally planning for two of us to complete this task while I'm
there, but is this timing too late?
Now I see that some companies are having meetings who are they going
to sponsor for next years events. I'm particularly talking about
Canonical that's having this kind of meeting today, are we going to be
late to have Canonical as sponsor? Are we in position to lose some
other potential sponsors, because AFAIK companies are making their
re-balances and budget calculations for following year around this
time right now.
i.e: I'm going to Banja Luka on Monday for a meeting with Governmen,
besides the "regular" meeting agenda we have, I'll bring a "manually"
and "specifically" written sponsorship document for one of the *major*
ISP and Telecom (M-Tel) companies in Bosnia. They expressed their wish
to sponsor this event, and we can't lose them, just as we shouldn't
lose Canonical. So right now we have to "specifically" write these
documents for each company.
Therefor, let's conclude this "sponsorship brochure" topic once for
all. Are you experienced sponsorship team member? Please let us know,
we'll do the work, all we need from you is answers to questions we
have and potential guidance.
I'll try to take care of M-Tel and Canonical so we don't lose them,
but let's do this already.
Thanks,
Adnan
