It doesn't matter, if they chose Unsponsored, they are paying. > - for DebCamp, should they also pay actual costs, or should they pay > the 650 even if they are just there for a few days? No, it's not sensible to make them pay the whole thing. Make them pay for the actual cost of their stay. > Only sponsored food: > - Actual accommodation costs during DebConf > - Zero food costs during DebConf > - What about DebCamp ? free with workplan, otherwise 650/(free > food,accom by day) or other? The same as above, if they chose to pay for accom, it's the same for DebConf and DebCamp. The only difference is that for DebCamp they should pay for the days they are actually there. > Only sponsored accommodations: > - Zero accommodation costs during DebConf > - Actual food costs during DebConf > - What about DebCamp ? free with workplan, otherwise 650/(free > food,accom by day) or other? They should pay for their food whenever they are there. Now, we don't really know how food is going to work out right? For people with unsponsored food, it might make sense to allow them to buy the tickets for the day or similar. > Fully sponsored: > - Zero accommodation costs during DebConf > - Zero food costs during DebConf > - With workplan, zero costs during DebCamp > - Without workplan, $650 for DebCamp.

I think this would be an abuse. At least give the option of paying half week for DebCamp, when it's less than 4 days. > - What if people want, say, sponsored DebCamp but a prof or corporate > registration for invoicing purposes?
