Eric, the Drupal association took the policy of not providing letters for
attendees, unless we personally knew to be significant contributors at
Drupalcon Barcelona.

The Plone 2006 conference organizers and the AIIM conference organizers have
policies for this. I have been working hard to keep the issue of providing
documentation for attendees at the forefront of our planning activities.  We
are working hard to address this issue, please notify us if you personally
require this documentation.
