In these circumstances it would be helpful to have a
little information, no
need to have names, but if we could have the number of people who have had
sponsorship once, twice, three times or more in the last six years I suspect
it would do much to reassure people that the myth that the same people get
sponsorship every year is either true or untrue.
FWIW, I have applied four times:
2012 - successful
2013 - unsuccessful
2014 - successful
2015 - unsuccessful
I ran a workshop in 2012 and gave a talk on each of the three days in
2014, as well as assisting at several of the pre-conference weekend
events. My talk proposal was accepted in 2015, but without a
scholarship, I could not attend. I can't recall whether or not my 2013
pitch to speak was accepted.
