    Surely if you want to encourage corporate sponsorship you need to offer the kind of things that usually come with corporate sponsorship. The three companies above get a write-up, logo and links, but why isn't there a page on cpantesters.org/sponsors...

    Ovid, thanks for the feedback. I've toned down the language.

    I was trying to protect CPAN Testers' funding from the vagaries of exchange rates, but you're right, the fewer barriers the better. That said, the EPO donation form does make it very easy to set up a recurring donation in £ via PayPal.

    grim: I've added a link to the CPAN Testers sponsors page. I hadn't added a link to it before because it's probably going to get a rework soon, but you're right, it should be linked right now, so people can see that they'll get ongoing recognition.

    One thing that I'd suggest to do as soon as possible is to add the link to the EPO page inside the CPAN Testers page. Anyone hitting there has absolutely no clue on how to do a donation, and it should be a quick, easy thing to do.

    Hi Flavio: that's a good suggestion — I've passed it on to Doug Bell, the new project lead for CPAN Testers.

    In the time since this article was posted the EPO has closed its doors so potential sponsors should no longer be directed there.

    Also, the sponsors page at http://iheart.cpantesters.org/ is showing an error and has been for many months, likely because it too depends on the now-gone EPO site. I've raised this problem elsewhere previously but perhaps you could also have a word?
