As you probably know, the infamous Geek Moot – Get together for all things CMSMS is coming to Northampton UK in March 2012. This will mark 18 months (way too long of a time) between conferences. The Geekmoot is an invaluable event where the community can get together to learn about CMSMS, it’s direction and techniques of working with this fantastic product. It is also an opportunity to network with your colleagues and to get to know the members of the team that work hard every day to keep your favorite content management system growing.

Since the members of the Dev team all volunteer their efforts to CMSMS, we need to raise some funds to allow some of the team members to travel and participate in the conference and to personally meet you. We are looking to sponsor at least two developers from north america and to assist a couple of others with expenses for the three day conference. We are looking to raise $6000 USD by March first. The money will go towards airfare and hotel fees for the dev team members. We know that our community can come together to make this happen.

We will of course be listing all donations on this page on a weekly basis. Furthermore, all donations over $200 will be listed on the geekmoot program, and all donations over $500 will also have the opportunity to post a suitable rotating banner on our websites (rotating banner on equal priority with the other contributors and partners) for two months and a posting on our monthly newsletter.

So lets come together and make this the best Geek Moot yet
