Voting on one's own comments (but not the comments of others) when posting the comment
Are there any modules that add voting widgets to new comment forms in Drupal 6? Everything I've seen (including the Rate module) adds widgets to published comments.
Fivestar and Rate can prevent users from voting on their own content but my use case is the opposite: people can vote on their own comments but not on the comments posted by others.

Florida DrupalCamp 2011 DRAFT Sponsorship Levels
Below is the draft for the various sponsorship levels for Florida DrupalCamp 2011. If anyone has any comments and/or suggestions, please let me know ASAP. I'd like to begin approaching potential sponsors later this week.
I've incorporated several major changes to the sponsorship opportunities compared to last year's Florida DrupalCamp. They are:
- Addition of a "Diamond" level - limited to a single sponsor for the event.
- Addition of an "Individual" level
- Increased the sponsorship amounts - last year the vast majority of the sponsors were at the $500 level

DrupalCamp Florida 2011 Potential Dates
A few of us have been working at securing a new location for Florida DrupalCamp 2011 - and we've made some good progress.
Before we go much further, we want to double-check the date that we've been working with: February 12-13, 2011. The location will remain in Central Florida.
As far as we can tell, these dates are relatively safe, with the only downside is that this is also the closest weekend to Valentine's Day (the SuperBowl is February 6, the Daytona 500 is February 20, DrupalCon Chicago is March 7-10, there are no other DrupalCamps currently scheduled for this weekend).

Waaaaay back in February, we started something that we never completed. Now is the time to do the right thing and finish what we started.
As part of Florida DrupalCamp 2010, we committed to building new sites for two local non-profit organizations: the Greater Orlando Mothers of Twins and Triplets and Junior Achievement of Central Florida. While we made great progress on both sites, but neither site was ever completed. We underestimated the necessary theming effort for both sites.
