And there was me thinking I had the monopoly on great ideas!
Whilst still confessing a yearning for a code4lib emblazoned hot
beverage container, I do concede that the audio/video support idea
does have merits.
Would someone like to contact me directly to explore this option
further.

Seems to me that #3 is a clear winner.
That does seem like a win-win option. Especially given Kevin
Clarke's suggestion that a Talis acknowledgement could be included
in the videos.

Aha, funding the audio and video is a great idea. Meets Code4Lib
needs, and also meets sponsor advertising needs, because all the
videos and audio could go up with a "capture of this content was
sponsored by Insert Vendor Here" link. I think Bill's idea
is great.
Someone would still need to be found to volunteer to recruit and
supervise this hypothetical student.
A Talis sponsored mug: Benefits everyone that attends the
conference a
little
A Talis sponsored scholarship: Benefits only one person and if it's
like some of the previous scholarship excludes some from
being eligible
to receive it.
A Talis sponsorship of audio/video support: Not only
benefits attendees
but benefits those that can't attend the conference and can watch the
audio/video captures after the conference.
Seems to me that #3 is a clear winner.
