Thanks Bryce,
Votes inline.
Proposal:
- Reduce the Bronze Level to $500.
[X] Yes. [ ] No. Keep Bronze Level at $1000
2. Divide Sponsors page by sponsorship level, with increased prominance and duration for higher levels than lower.
[ ] Yes. [X] No. Keep the page layout to discretion of web team
Do we want to say something about what kind of guarantee a placement has on the front page or how many slots there are there if not rotated?
This item is just about the Sponsors page layout, but I'll note there is text in the Golden and Platinum level descriptions that cover the front page placements, which specifies the logo will be rotated off when the next Gold or Platinum sponsor comes along, implying there is a single slot available. (We will have a second slot for our current Silver sponsor as they're grandfathered in via the previous sponsorship level agreement; when their year is passed we'll reduce to a single slot.)
If you want more specifics or different guidelines for any of this, please feel free to suggest alternate text.
- Merge Platinum and Diamond sponsorship levels for now. Diamond
can be re-introduced later when we need it.
[X] Yes, merge Platinum and Diamond [ ] No. Keep these two levels as-is.
- Add reward of placement in the website footer for Platinum
sponsors.
[X] Yes. [ ] No. Do not include sponsors in website footer
- Add a Recent News item for Golden level and two news items for
Platinum.
[X] Yes. [ ] No. Provide no guarantee of any news mentions.
- Add mention in all Release Notes for two years for Platinum level
sponsors.

Thanks, Bryce
