Re: [Consortium] Sponsors for prizes

Hi, As per the previous message regarding the template competition I am seeking sponsors for prizes that can be given to the winners of the design competition. However I am also seeking sponsors for a higher level of award that is now well overdue. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ All of us have used Linux Audio tools for our businesses and have a debt of gratitude to the Linux Audio Developers community. There are some very specific names that deserve official recognition for their motivation, dedication and all round superstar qualities. I would like to see the next Linux Audio Conference as the inaugural awards ceremony for Linux Audio Developers, Musicians, and Supporters. I am proposing a series of awards that will be sponsored by members of the Consortium. Obviously there will be a lifetime achievement award but we also need a couple of other categories. Some suggestions are: Developers: Best Audio recording software Best Midi software Best DJ software Best Sequencing software Best Plugin Most Active contributor Most Active evangalist Best Blog Best Forum
