Re: [Bnbsg] Invitation to Participate in IETF 90 Bits-N-Bites: Internet of Things

[Alexa Morris <[e-mail]>]

Alex,

Thanks! Just to make sure I understand, are you suggesting that despite the fact that they are a non-profit, they are perhaps a well-funded one and that, while we want them to participate, they should be able to pay some sort of participation fee? 

And that we might make this prospect more enticing by providing them with some recognition that they could take back to their funder, such as a trophy? Just want to make sure I’m quite clear on who ls providing what :-)

Thanks,
Alexa
