[Ambassadors] FEDORA en FLISOL 2007 - PERU

[David Barzilay]

Dear Guillermo,

John's email mentions some of the main points on event sponsoring:

. if the request is given with enough time to plan
+ valid reasons for participating
+ reasonable budget forecast for your needs and other ambassadors'
(travel, accommodation, DVDs, banner, collateral)

Then you definitely stand a better chance of getting at least partial
sponsorhip.

I can be your point of contact in Latin America. Please let me know when
you have the information above ready for FLISOL.

Best,
