<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Maria,<br><br>Thanks for keeping the costs down - it helps to be an inclusive community!<br></div><br></div><div>On the other hand, conferences like this are perhaps one of the few ways commercial and governement entities can sponsor Osgeo easily. They often don't mind paying a fee for a conference and workshops whereas sponsoring is going through entirely different departments. I guess it is too late now, but for the future we could perhaps consider having two prices: a standard price and a 'starving hacker' price (better name suggestions welcome). The latter could be for students, charter members and others who apply.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, looking forward to the conference!<br></div>Johan<br><div><div><div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 1:48 PM, Polimi <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:maria.brovelli@polimi.it" target="_blank">maria.brovelli@polimi.it</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div><span></span></div><div><div>Dear All</div><div>Marco and I have made some simulations about possible registration fees. The idea is to keep them as lower as possible. We will provide the basic facilities ( rooms, staff for registration, technical staff for the computer rooms, ...) and then considering how many people will register and/or how many sponsors we'll have we will add the extras (t-shirts, coffee breaks, ice-breaker party, lunches, and so on).
