Okay, this is right. I was going to reply but didn't have time. With 42 professional / 2 corporate (= 44 rooms which are "professional-quality"), that gives us 40/110 attendees and 15 kCHF travel sponsorship. I included it in there just because we know how professional works and everyone agrees to *very* heavily encourage more professionals. And then some might see the budget as just laughable and not take it seriously. But realize: if people don't register as professional, and we don't make a sponsorship windfall, this will be a tiny tiny debconf. But I am not too worried about that right now. Now that I think about it, a bigger question is the splitting of costs of attendance (food, accom) with professional fee. If this is done, more people may pay just food+accom which would reduce this income greatly. - Richard p.s. I added a cell in the spreadsheet listing "effective accom per night" (total accom cost / person-days). It is currently 47 €/night. That is a *lot* and explains why this costs so much relative to our other options. -- | Richard Darst - rkd@ - pyke: up 20 days, 20:04 | http://rkd.zgib.net - pgp 0xBD356740 | "Ye shall know the truth and -- the truth shall make you free" _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
