Hi Satya, May I suggest you (re)negotiate (ask if you want detailed
negotiation pointers. I'm not suggesting it as it may seem like
driving a hard bargain, as atm, we need them more than they us) with
the media's marketing department. IMPO, the media partnership
agreement must be equitable, but from the above it seems their
expectations (from InPycon) is a lot more than what they have to offer
us. But then, I'm not an active organizer so this is finally their
call.
