Now that the bid is in, we need to start compiling a list of possible sponsors. Our wiki lists previous YAPC sponsors (http://yapchouston.org/wiki/wiki.cgi/Sponsorship). I’ve noticed a few companies posting to jobs.perl.org (such as cPanel) that might be possible stakeholders. I’ll probably go through some of the other job sites (monster.com, hotjobs.com, etc), as well as do some Google searching.
I’ll update the wiki when I get a chance and put a link to the Sponsorship page (or create a new PossibleSponsors page) on the home page. We can start adding companies and others that are potential sponsors.
We may also want to start thinking about “social activities” and possibilities for the YAPC dinner (instead of just having the dinner on campus). This year’s YAPC dinner (and TPF Auction) was at Dave & Buster’s. I think Toronto did a cruise party or something. If anyone has any ideas for adding some sort of “twist” to the conference, feel free to offer it. You know, just something that people can say, “Remember at the Houston YAPC where everyone [creative idea]? That was [adjective]!”. I think one year had a scavenger hunt around the city (or area?).
