think that we could raise a decent amount of money. In particular, I think
that LGM has much better fundraising prospects than most individual
projects since (1) it can offer promotional opportunities in a way no
self-respecting software project could, (2) events are just naturally more
alluring to prospective sponsors, and (3) since it covers so much
geographic and topical territory.

I'm already overbooked for the next few months, but, assuming that we can
get this SPI thing hammered out by this year's event, I fully plan to dig
in on this. I would love to see us get to the point where projects no
longer need to spend their own money on LGM travel expenses, and I think
that we can achieve that.

In the meantime, any leads would be most appreciated.
