There may be a misconception, then. A sponsor only has a commitment to the one upload that they sponsor. If you manage to establish an ongoing relationship with a person who consistently sponsors subsequent releases, great!

You should always feel free to ask for sponsors here if the previous sponsor is too busy or unresponsive. > I would rather see a quick denial of a package, with sound motivation, > than be hanging on a loose thread. That would certainly be nice. But as described above, you have other options than simply waiting powerlessly in that case. -- \ “I knew things were changing when my Fraternity Brothers threw | `\ a guy out of the house for mocking me because I'm gay.” | _o__) —postsecret.com, 2010-01-19 | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
