Long-time lurker, but thought I'd chime in and say I would be interested in such a scholarship, if it were available. I have a bit of video editing experience, and am interested in coming to the conference in RI. On 3 Nov 2008, at 19:57, K.G. Schneider wrote: +1 for the idea of funding

I like the idea. If giving out at the beginning of the conference, it could also make the conference more green. Of course, in that case it would probably need to be a travel mug instead of a regular mug. Edward Richard Wallis wrote: We at Talis will be, as previously, sponsoring Code4lib

Giving out a travel mug at the conference, especially if the attendees were informed of this at registration time (or at least before they packed) would be a fantastic idea. - David On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 9:03 AM, Edward M. Corrado [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I like the idea. If giving out at the

Wow really interesting question and one that makes sense given the move towards developing a code4lib brand. my opinion on the Talis offer: +1 on the basis of free_swag++ It raises the question though: Does code4lib want to develop a brand and determine who and who can't have permission to use

Yeah, I'd rather the money were spent for a scholarship than for a travel mug. I don't need any more travel mugs. Thanks for making this point, Erik. On the other hand, Talis may consider it money better spent to put a mug with their logo into it into each participants hands, than a
