Contacto para solicitar auspicio a Google

[Leo Soto M.]

Estimados,

En el último Encuentro Linux se tocó por encima el tema de contactar a
Google para un posible auspicio. Bueno, hace unas semanas contacté a
Sven y quedé de averiguar quien podría ser el contacto. Resultado: es
Leslie Hawthorn (quien tambien lleva adelante el Google Summer of
Code).

Abajo reenvío su primera reacción con respecto al tema (básicamente
necesita que la organización la contacte).

Saludos!

Hi Leo,

How are you? It is nice to hear from you. I can take a look at sponsor
information for the conference - would you please have the organizers
send me a sponsor prospectus? Fair warning, we do not have a great
deal of funds for conference sponsorships this year, but I would be
happy to take a look.

Best,
LH
