 Robyn and Paul will talk to someone present from Google at the Ohio Linux
 Fest event October 10-12.  They would like to bring the prospectus
 information, if possible, or at least some ideas for line items that could
 use sponsorship.  One of the best candidates for this is the cost of
 bandwidth ($2500) at the hotel.

Comment:

 Cat @GOOG is the right person to talk to, according to people to whom
 ke4qqq spoke at OLF.  Robyn will reach out to her once our prospectus is
 finished.

 I'm going to go ahead and email Cat and talk to her a bit, and see what
 she'd need in terms of a prospectus.

 Yargh! Catching up. ke4qqq gave me a nice email introduction to Cat, and I

Comment (by ke4qqq):

 Cat responded to Robyn's email and suggested that she'd be happy to make
 up to 2k available. There are issues around POs and the like that will
 need to be sorted.

Comment (by pfrields):

 The easiest way to handle this would probably be for Cat to agree to send
 the $2K to ASU catering to pay a portion of our catering bill.  We would,
 of course, give due credit and public recognition to Google for helping to
 support our event!

Comment:

 This sponsorship was attained, thanks to Robyn and Cat.  AIUI the catering
 is to be taken care of as above, correct?  If so, ready to close this one!
