Fwd: DebConf16 - early planning
Hi all,
FYI regarding SPI and DPLs - slowly wading through the bureaucracy. :)
On a related-ish note: Sponsors.
We have a sponsors meeting with Brian and the DebConf 'global'
(looking for a better name for these 'bigger/more experienced/??'
teams) tomorrow.
Brian asked for a DC16 status update regarding sponsors. In my mind we
only have some leads, and a brochure draft that should be final at the
end of DC15. Anything else we can add here?
I need some help getting the leads out into a presentable format. I
think Allison said the sponsor leads can be made into a table. I would
actually like to learn how to do this, so would like someone to teach
me, rather than do it for me. Any takers? I'm only available after
20:00 tonight though.
Current leads from the debconf-sponsors/dc16 folder:
Acceleration [1]
And these were listed in the sponsors-list folder/directory:
credativ
cybersmart
google
hp
ibm
matanel
obsidian
ovh
rsaweb
sipgate
valve
webafrica
Nigel, where are all your leads?
Cheers
B

Just chatted to Neil. He's on board. And also happy to sign contracts.
And, of course, he wants to negotiate that 75% upfront payment down.
