Arnulf,


the structure of the whole page will change this weekend, extending the
menu to not only be a one page design. Therefore only little effort was
made for now to present the Sponsor Page.
What is important for you to change before going broader public? Would it
be sufficient to only show the headings, where we already have Sponsors?
All your ideas from above will be considered this weekend.


Regards,
Carmen
