[Steering Committee] november sponsor update

[Brian Sheldon]

GDH will pay for the room (both meetings) and lunch for November! yeah! he suprized me.

In my response to GDH I said this...

Would GDH want to be a Founding Sponsor by contributing to the $300 it will cost to become a non-profit organization? I just made up 'Founding Sponsor' and I haven't run this idea by anyone yet,  but I think we would probably have some special place on our website for 'Founding Sponsor's (or whatever we decide to call it)...

What do you all think about the 'Founding Sponsor' idea?

bsssssssssss

I spoke with Bill Powers at UoP and we can split the cost of the room between the sponsors.

So, I'm guessing GDH will only want to pay $37.50. I'm still waiting on GDH's response on this. 


Cool.  This would certainly be a lot easier if we carried a balance and they just gave $Y.  I didn't get anywhere asking my lawyer bro-in-law what he knew about it, as it's mostly an accounting thing, iirc.  Brian got some good info from...someone...  Do we want to pursue that?  It solves some problems, but will definitely cause more work for the SC, and may also require a more formal structure.  I dunno.  I'm going to email Jay Zimmerman (of NFJS).  He ran the Boulder (?) JUG for 8 years.  Surely he has some thoughts on this... 

FWIW, Objectstream is willing to sponsor the next we need them...us... whatever. :)
