Is the information about what each sponsor provides us available somewhere. I'm fine if you don't want to make this public, but please add the information to the debconf-team SVN repo or the sponsors-table GIT repo. Or point me in the right direction if this is already somewhere. I'm a bit surprised by the fact that you tell me that they provide the value of at least a Bronze Sponsor. I can't imagine that we have Domains from Gandi valueing 2000 CHF. For others it seems more likely but still a lot. We have 5 permanent sponsors who do hosting. This would mean we need at least 10k for hosting each year? > > Moving them to some subpage, like 2nd class sponsors, just because it is > not money, is a sure way to lose them. As I wrote if they really provide equivalent support of a Bronze sponsor, I'm fine with the current situation. If not on the other hand it's unfair to the other sponsors. And if we really loose one of them. I'm sure we will find anotherone in Switzerland without them being on every page. Gaudenz -- Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again.
