I guess we drove back home together since I heard the idea already. Problem is: What does S-Bahn gain from sponsoring LinuxTag? It's not that there are tons of Karlsruhe people who are going to make more use of the tram in Karlsruhe after the event, so they get real money for their sponsoring. Sure we can ask them, but what can we give them? Without being able to provide something to them, they won't give something to us, I'm pretty sure. As for reduced tickets, that may be more realistic, but it would probably require somebody to purchase some 300 one-way tickets and resell them - who's going to take that risk? >From my experience with free projects at LinuxTag, it's very dangerous for me to assume that nnn tickets will be required, the chance of not using them, but me having to pay for them is too high. What did a one-way ticket cost anyway?
