ITEC cost

[der.hans]

moin, moin,

due to a misunderstanding with how the ITEC stuff worked PLUG had to come
up with the $70 for electricity on the spot for our booth during
ITEC. Having juice helped our presentation. It allowed us to show off
Linux, demonstrate a sponsor's (RNi) capabilities and let people sign up
for the mailing list from the booth :).

Robbie of Viking Systems dipped into his pocket to pay for it at the time,
but he should get reimbursed. Viking Systems was already helping us out by
giving most of their staff those two days off to work the booth as well as
paying the printing costs on the flyers we had, buying us the cool banner
that we'll have at next month's meeting and providing most of the
equipment for the booth.

We had another sponsor that was going to pony up with some cash to help
PLUG out for ITEC and other things. We were planning on paying Robbie back
from that, but unfortunately that sponsorship money hasn't materialized.

So, the question is: Do we have a company out there that will provide us
with the money to repay Robbie for the PLUG expense he fronted us?

We, of course, can promise nothing in return except our public gratitude.

ITEC was very successful for us. Events like this help us promote Linux as
well as give us an opportunity to help our sponsors who provide us with
all the SWAG Jim gets for givaways at the meetings.

ciao,

der.hans
