I'm potentially open to this argument, but, for clarity, that's not actually what I meant. I was suggesting having a single sponsor framework, except for a special fee for Debian Day stands. While I realise that there are different audiences, I'm worried about confusing or offending the main DebConf sponsors if we treat Debian Day sponsorship separately, perhaps unless we charge *more* for Debian Day than for the equivalent status for the main conference. (In fact the suggestion from those who wanted separate levels was to charge less, to help local companies qualify.) I'm also concerned that we have sufficient work to do in setting up the main sponsorship scheme, and that having a separate scheme for Debian Day would double this work. (Indeed, if it's separate, mention of Debian Day should be removed from the main sponsor pack, and we should have a separate sponsor pack about Debian Day, etc.) -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
