Not strictly all brand questions so consider this more of an answer from an experienced ASF Member.
Yes you can charge. Yes you can have sponsors. Generally, you need to keep in mind that you need to avoid undermining the ASF-wide sponsor system. Generally, you can mention the sponsor on the page for the event but not on your home page. Depending on how much the sponsorship is for, you may want to contact fundraising@ as there is (if the amount is around $6k) the possibility of treating it as a directed ASF sponsorship. fundraising@ can provide details on that. Yes, you can mention and link to the sponsors on the event page. I strongly recommend that those are no-follow links. Tomcat did this: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TOMCAT/TomcatCon+London+2017 Absolutely not necessary, but nicely aligned with the ASF's values of transparency and openness. If you are handling funds, be careful to avoid any tax issues. HTH, Mark On 12/03/18 12:17, Antonio wrote: > Hi all, > > 1.
