10 I think we should devise categories of sponsorship. Further we should
11 properly record all sponsors/contributors and what we should do in
12 return. Categories do not need to be time based, but if someone does a
13 one time contribution they should be removed from the sponsor list after
14 a reasonable time depending on the contribution. They might have a choice
15 there in "high exposure for a short time" versus "lower exposure for a
16 longer time"
