[uf-discuss] An invitation to sponsor microformatsDevCamp this weekend...

[Rohit Khare]

Fellow microformateers --

I'm the 'sponsor wrangler' for the microformatsDevCamp coming up this  
weekend at Automattic in SF; see http://tr.im/ufcp for all the great  
news and details.

I'm writing to invite you and your colleagues to participate, and to  
help spread the word to other Web developers. And, of course, to ask  
if you could help us out by sponsoring!

It's a pretty informal camp, so microformats.org is not managing the  
money directly; we're looking for companies or individuals to sponsor  
meals by ordering directly for the 30-50 developers, designers,  
authors, and publishers we expect to participate (bagels, pizza,  
indian food, beer -- nothing too fancy). Some of our other  
contributions are up to $400, but even $250 or so would be much  
appreciated

While our snazzy commemorative T-shirts are already printed -- free  
with any donation at the door ($20 suggested) -- we will be thanking  
all of our sponsors profusely off-line and on-line. We'd be glad to  
arrange signage, logos, and a few moments to chat with the attendees,  
too.

If you think this would be of interest to you or one of your  
colleagues, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at khare at alumni.caltech.edu 
  or at (650) 714-5529.

Thanks,
  Rohit
