Hi,
It would be really great if we could get the sponsorship reward level stuff nailed down sooner rather than later. The last off-list email I sent regarding this didn't seem to get any response, so I figured we'd just move the discussion on to the list to see if it helps move things forward.
I received a follow-up email from the potential donor with $5,000 and I still had nothing new to tell him. A donor having to follow-up because I didn't have a substantive response to provide is not a good thing... especially when weeks later I have literally no new info for them.
I was also contacted again by someone who produces educational courses for Inkscape who would like to donate via profit sharing if we'd be willing to promote his courses. Since he originally contacted me a year ago, he has garnered 5,000 sales of his courses. His proposal is to donate half of the proceeds moving forward. So, in his case it would be a unique situation since his donation amount wouldn't be predictable. I think it has the potential to be hugely beneficial to both parties.
Any thoughts, comments, or questions would be appreciated just so the conversation goes somewhere.
Cheers, Josh
