@patka_123:matrix.org | Is there a possibility to have someone from the foundation answering or giving a statement somewhere?
It's nice to have a place for concerns, but not if it falls of deaf ears. | 08:38:51 |

ronef | FYI - One of the action items was to update the sponsorship tiers to reflect current reality. I added that on the discourse.
copying here as well:
We will not have promo videos.
We will not have logo on screens during breaks
Some sponsors are not shown on mechanicals around the conference area | 00:04:50 |

ronef | For reference what a mechanical is, it's the physical signs | 00:06:45 |

Colin | In reply to @tomberek:matrix.org Submitted an update to the proposed policy: https://github.com/NixOS/foundation/issues/110#issuecomment-2002915462 thanks, left a short reply there trying to clarify some of the distinctions around "endorsement"/"sponsorship"/"advertisement". wasn't sure the best venue for that discussion: happy to move it here if you prefer. | 05:58:56 |
tomberek | This thread is fine to discuss, but we should write any conclusions back into the issue.
Of the material benefits mentioned, I think the most relevant+valuable you mention is that of having a booth. Things like logo placement are common with donations as well (see our Open Collective); these are not really advertising, it would be more accurate to say it is acknowledgment, a thank you. I highly doubt companies go around donating to various funds due to the high advertising value of logo placements on such thank-you webpages or conference brochures. The positive messaging is the first component mentioned; this is far more applicable to something usually called "partnerships", a closer relationship that can imply endorsement and a shared vision.
This is how I view these distinctions. I do understand the desire not to endorse; and I don't see necessarily see any happening. | 06:23:07 |
