Hi Ben, I submitted this application based on the recommendation of  
Andy Smith.  CivicSpace would like to provide this for resellers/ 
associates of the hosted CivicSpace ASP.  I'll run your application  
by the CivicSpace team and we will find the appropriate mentor for  
your project.

Cheers,
Kieran
