  3. Sponsorship levels for DebConf12 (gwolf, 18:33:28)
    1. Discussing the sponsorship levels, an idea is to keep the lower brackets at the same numbers than DC11 but in USD instead of EUR, and adjusting the upper ones (gwolf, 18:42:49)
    2. IDEA: maybe add benefit "emphasize gold sponsors in PR material" (h01ger, 18:43:13)
