Thanks to everyone who wrote giving their support and offering
sponsorship -- quite a few more interested sponsors than I had
anticipated. I'll alert the winning party shortly, but just wanted to
thank everyone who wrote.

JD,
I am willing to contribute towards for sponsorship for the next five
years (at $8.50/year). I suggest that you renew it for the full five
years, and let me (and whoever else decides to contribute) know for
how much to send you the check. If noone else contributes, I'll cover
it all (again, I am assuming a max of $42.50 for the five years).
Thanks for all the fine work.
