In response to Corey - doesn't PR already fulfill the role of the |
| 21 |
fundraisers? Last I heard, they were the ones that contacted companies |
| 22 |
for funds, hardware, and other resources, contacted institutions for our |
| 23 |
server colos, and handled individual developer hardware requests. |
| 24 |
Perhaps we could add some manpower and direction (not sure if they need |
| 25 |
it though). Perhaps Swift and Klieber would be more qualified to |
| 26 |
comment. |
