Re: [Inkscape-board] Hackfest organization

I agree with Ted. If you want perks, how about giving voting power on what we will work on?

That seems like a very well put together plan. I'm going to mull over the details and add in whatever way I can.
Thanks for helping get this sorted out.
When we do fundraising for this event, what would you guys think if we made one of the rewards for $xx contribution be an invitation to join us? (This would imply that we would limit invites to only current contributors or some such.)
I'm -1 on that, I think it implies that the event is somehow private or closed. I think it is better to present the event as open to all, with developers getting sponsored attendance.

Ah! no context, what's shelved?
The reward for $xx contribution be an invitation to join us, implying that the event be closed.
