Not a bad idea, except that Ted's been working for Disney for at least a couple of years now. We were halfway to including Oracle as a sponsor at PyCon, but then they tried to pull a fancy "special terms and conditions" stunt late in the game and Jesse, having no time for stunts, declined to accept them as a sponsor.
Overall we want as many sponsors as we can get, but Oracle don't really seem to be that much of a team player, so without evidence of a revised attitude I'd be inclined to just let them go. A relationship with Oracle seems too much like hard work. regards Steve On May 2, 2012, at 4:43 AM, Stefan Drees wrote: > Hey to all that might be interested in just my opinion on this, > > ... since I did not find a matching Oracle entry on that mentioned page > (http://www.python.org/psf/members/#sponsor-member), but of course Oracle > somehow responding "as target website" behind the sponsor link, I personally > would not suggest simply removing the entry but instead requesting an update > on the status from the former representative Ted Leung i.e. if and how this > membership has been transfered to Oracle. > > All the bbest, > Stefan. > > Am 02.05.12 12:20, schrieb Michael Foord: >> Hey all, >> >> I assume that Tshepang is correct (see email below) and that Sun should be >> removed from the PSF member list. >> >> Michael Foord >> >> Begin forwarded message: >> >>> From: Tshepang Lekhonkhobe<[email protected]> >>> Subject: http://www.python.org/psf/members/ need updating >>> Date: 30 April 2012 13:12:54 GMT+01:00 >>> To: [email protected] >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I see that Sun Microsystems is claimed to be a sponsor member >>> (http://www.python.org/psf/members/#sponsor-members).
