Hello,

first of all, apologies for net getting back to you previously. We are 
in the process of finalising most of the details of the conference and 
have been busy with this and "In Real Life"-work, and we just missed to 
respond properly.

We are of course delighted to have you as sponsors of EuroPython 2005, 
however we have not yet decide on what levels of Sponsorship we are 
going to offer nor what the pricing will be; this whould be decided at 
the latest by the end of this week, and I will get back to you as soon 
as it happens.

Nevertheless, to help with preparations, we can provide information on 
what *is* available.

You mention that you need a room. Do you need a separate room to use for 
  customer meetings or do you mean that you intened to hold a 
talsk/session? If the former, what days do you wish to have acess to it?

I must mention that we are not certain we may be able to aquire a 
separate room, but we will most cerntainly look in what possiblities we 
have and get back to you ASAP.

To get the name displayed in the Website and Printed Material is no 
problem. We have already a banner exposure and rotation system in place 
that you can see in action right now if you go to www.europython.org.

We offer two options:

Top banners:
-------------------

* exposure: displayed on every page, randomly rotating
* Size: 468x60
* required information:
   - a link to a site (url)
   - the name of the company
   - a short text description (for search engine, e.g. google,
     etc and for the textbased version of the site)


Online banners:
------------------------

* exposure: on 1 or several folders of the site.
* Size: 160x320
* required information:
   - a link to a site (url)
   - the name of the company
   - a short text description (see top banners)
   - the folder in the site where it should be displayed

* example: http://www.europython.org/sections/accomodation/cheap_hotels


Accepted image formats: JPEG, PNG, GIF

Please take care to keep file sizes small, index the image if possible.

Banners should be sent to jmo at ita.chalmers.se for insertion in the site.

The specifications for an advert to appear in the printed material are 
not yet set since we are working on them at the moment. When these are 
set, we will notify you.

Sending 4 people to the conference should be no problem. If you prefer, 
we are willing to discuss their participation as part of the sponsorship 
agreement.

Lastly, I am not sure I understand what you mean by selling tickets to 
your customers. Normally, interested people register themselves on the 
web-based registration system. Do you mean that you, for your customers, 
wish to provide other options for registreation that are managed by you? 
If you provide more info we can work something out.

If you have any more questions, or if you feel something is unclear you 
are welcome to contact me again, either by mail (dario at ita.chalmers.se) 
or by telephone (+46 31 772 8674).

For the remaining outstanding issues (print material, room, etc) I will 
contact you again as soon as I have more information on them.

Finally, let me once again apologise for the delay in responding, and I 
hope that you now have more info to work with.

Sincerely,

Dario Lopez-Kästen
for the Europython 2005 organising committee
