That is not correct, sorry, PLATINUM gets:
Benefits from gold, and also:
+ Name and description of sponsor in all press releases relating to
the conference
+ Logo on banner behind talk podiums
+ 45 minute slot for giving a free software related talk
The three above are *more* visibility than GOLD, if not for the talk
at least for the fact that in any official press release and video
there will be the sponsor name/logo.
I do not know how should we change that and, again, I did not do
anything more than taking DC10 levels and checking them against newer
DebConfs for consistency. IIRC the only thing that (I) changed was
the amount of money, not the benefits.
Thx, bye,
