Hi Martin, Apologies for the delay in getting back to you on this. As I suspected, our sponsorship budget for 2012 has already been allocated, and we are not going to be able to sponsor UbuConLa this year. We assess our budget during the last quarter of the year for the following year, so if you would like sponsorship for 2013, please let us know as soon as you can. Best of luck for the event.
