Fantastic. It looks like we are posting to <a href="http://identi.ca" target="_blank">identi.ca</a>, and that is auto-posting to Twitter?

I tend to agree, and in fact was stuck recently when asked if Fedora would sponsor LinuxFest Northwest. The reason I didn't say yes was budget. AFAICT, we don't have the money to fund getting people there, running a booth, and providing any sponsoring more than ... US$100? OTOH, I would argue that your approach is a good reason for Max to argue for more event budget overall. While it is not in Red Hat's interest to sponsor a show they cannot get good sales leads from, Fedora's purpose is different. We *do* get new participants and contributors at every show we attend (which are equivalent to 'qualified sales leads' for Fedora!), and would obviously get more value if we get the brand out there as a sponsor and organizer. At this point, FAmNA needs to decide to funnel money in to sponsorship, which will probably reduce the overall number of events we can do this year. - Karsten -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Community Gardener <a href="http://quaid.fedorapeople.org" target="_blank">http://quaid.fedorapeople.org</a> AD0E0C41 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Not at all. When the event is on our events page please add discussing the event on our agenda for some meeting. We do have quarterly funding cycles so when we can decide these things is constrained by which quarter the event is in and how much funding we have in that or the previous quarter. We certainly will be happy to consider sponsoring the event in New Mexico.
