Sponsorship... again
Just an update as I have raised this issue on this list a number of times. I have sent numerous emails questioning the sponsorship packages for ICANN San Francisco. We are now three weeks from ICANN San Francisco and I have not had any answer from ICANN staff at all. All I have been told is that is has been escalated to Nick Tomaso. I don't think I am asking too much in requesting some answers here. I think it is just plain rude to be ignored (you can tell I don't like it right?). I guess they have achieved their objective by not responding. We are now a sponsor at the inflated rate. We found some budget by firing a staff member and not supplying cookies in the staff kitchen. I hope some fellowship folks benefit from their trip to the beautiful city of San Francisco that we are supporting... I look forward to reading how much revenue sponsorship brought in for this meeting and what the rates will be for Jordan. Just remember, I support ICANN and I support newTLDs. Adrian Kinderis
Could someone from Staff provide Adrian with an answer please? Stéphane Envoyé de mon iPhone4 Le 17 févr. 2011 à 06:16, Adrian Kinderis <adrian@ausregistry.com.au> a écrit :
