I'd much rather use my budget to pay for ambassador travel & hotel, marketing materials and if a booth costs money I love to pay for that to. And organizing openSUSE hackfests & sprints to get work done. A banner at a conference is not worth much to me, however. In other words, I won't sponsor unless someone has a very good reason to do so which doesn't involve just having our name on some website or a banner. And can justify it over using the money for openSUSE. > - James Mason, "bear454" > > On Feb 2, 2011 9:09 AM, "Jos Poortvliet" <jospoortvl...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Wednesday 12 January 2011 12:02:32 Jos Poortvliet wrote: > >> On Tuesday 11 January 2011 21:09:07 Helen wrote: > >> > James, did you get a reply to this query? > >> > > >> > AFAIK 11.4 is on schedule for March release so you should be able to > >> > access media by mid April for sure.
