I'm going to assume people can do basic math, and not be insulted by being asked to do something where there is a much simpler method: DC12: ~ 60 kUSD DC11: 55 kUSD (= 33.5 kEUR at that time, using mid 2001 conversion rate) DC10: 92 kUSD (85 kUSD excluding exclusive local sources) DC9: ~120 kUSD (= 83 kEUR in 2009) I am using USD just since I started with assumption USD=CHF to make things easy, but should have been using EUR. So I was hoping people would realize that 150% of DC12 is about the DC10 amount. This is why 150% we consider "safe" and 200% is considered a lot. (Using today's rate, 92 kUSD is 86 kCHF) - Richard p.s. One can also notice trends of decreasing sponsorship, despite still needing it (e.g. dc12, dc11 had lots of local sponsorship which isn't accounted for.). Another way we know this isn't just lack of effort is various major sponsors amounts have been declining. -- | Richard Darst - rkd@ - pyke: up 2 days, 1 | http://rkd.zgib.net - pgp 0xBD356740 | "Ye shall know the truth and -- the truth shall make you free" _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
