Do you have any suggestions on how to improve this. What benefits would
you add to silver?
IMHO the benefits and levels are OK. We can always discuss at lenght
every detail, but I don't expect the result to be much better. In the
end I think the benefits don't matter that much to companies. I guess
that most of them sponsor DebConf because they want to support Debian,
not because of the benefits.
If you want to change the benefits for a level please also provide an
alternative set of benefits for each level that is consistent. Otherwise
this discussion will never come to a conclusion. And IMHO it's more
important to start approaching sponsors now than to bikeshed the benefits.
