I'm not sure about it but it seems like a good idea. Basically, provide a bag of benefits (some limited and some not) each of which requires some amount of money. If the total amount for all the benefits selected by the sponsor exceeds a certain value, they become gold, or platinum or whatever and get a few extra benefits.

We can price benefits that have higher demand with a higher amount. Sponsors have to select *some* benefits. That's pretty much the point of taking sponsorships no? I'm not advocating this. Just thought I'd bring it up since it surfaced the last time we discussed sponsorships. -- Cordially, Noufal http://nibrahim.net.in From kiran.daredevil at gmail.com Mon Dec 30 17:49:47 2013 From: kiran.daredevil at gmail.com (Kiran Gangadharan) Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2013 20:49:47 +0400 Subject: [Inpycon] Important Dates Message-ID: Hi, Below are some of the important dates regarding Pycon India 2014.
