I suggest to create a section in the website for long<br>
term/historical<br>
sponsors, and list the new sponsors in the web page only if they<br>
donate<br>
/ contribute regularly (Say, once a year - I would indicate a<br>
certain<br>
lower threshold for the amount). Event-based donors and micro-donors<br>
will be listed into the wiki page of the event.<br>
<br>
<br>
That would mean that someone who gives a large amount, but only<br>
once, will not be mentioned anywhere ? I think that sometimes<br>
companies might want to pay back in a one-shot for the use they made<br>
of a free software, but without committing for long term<br>
sponsorship. I think that they should also be mentioned somewhere.<br>
<br>
<br>
I agree that they should be mentioned somewhere, but probably keeping<br>
them in the page of the sponsors for ever is not the best choice. Maybe<br>
in a separate section?<br>

I guess a yearly revision of the list of sponsors would not be too much work, or ?</blockquote><div><br></div><div style="">Thus that's more or less what I meant in the first place: a donor remains in the "sponsors" page only if donates regularly (eg. every year), otherwise it's moved to a list of "former donors" (which I believe is necessary to keep track of, for transparency and history).</div>
