Jim,
Well, this is my general idea. We'd divide the sponsors page into:
Code Contributors
current developer sponsors here
Hosting Sponsors
hub, ehpg, cmd, etc.
Financial Sponsors
Major Sponsors
$10,000+ annual corporate gifts
Sponsors
other corporate gifts, $1000-$10,000
plus in-kind support
Individuals (link to page)
However, the "ad-hoc fundraising group" has yet to discuss actual donor
levels. Plus, "Financial Sponsors" *must* include donors to JPUG,
PostgresqlFR and FFIV Germany as well as PostgreSQL at SPI.
I've thought about some relativist approaches but they don't really seem
appropriate for a donor credits page -- all they would do is result in the
big companies giving less, which is not what we want.
Oh, one more note: I'd like to phase out the banner ads by using sponsor
listings instead. No other major OSS project I know of uses banners ads
on their site; it's time to shut them down.
