<br>
This sounds great!<br>
<br>
I don&#39;t mean to be the guy who doesn&#39;t do anything, but would you mind<br>
talking to Ross about it?<br>
<br>
I&#39;m in a &quot;trim down your commitments as much as possible&quot; place at the<br>
moment - donation $100, ensuring the pledgie campaign&#39;s running smoothly<br>
and blogging about the conference is about as much as I&#39;m prepared to do<br>
this year.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

&gt; Dave, when you and I talked about last year&#39;s pledgie campaign at the LF<br>
&gt; meeting in Austin, Robin Miller mentioned media sponsorships with the<br>
&gt; SourceForge sites -- but I don&#39;t remember what actually came of that.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I ask because I talked with Ross Turk at SCALE last weekend, and he said<br>
&gt; he would be more than happy to be the go-to guy to handle an ad series.<br>
&gt; Those sites would reach a lot of eyes.<br>
