Using the instance provided by OSGeo no, there are no costs

I don't know, pretix is another software used for payment and connected to
pretalx and venueless

- Can we entrust the operation of Pretalx to our PCO?

I think yes, we just need to collect mail of people will join the
administration of your call

- Regarding Venueless, are there any fees for its use?

If you use the service provided by the venueless team yes, but you could
run it on your local server (this is not so simple so right know we always
used and paid the service by the venueless team

- For our official conference website, should the server be prepared by the

Yes, if you want you can reuse the structure of FOSS4G 2024 (international
and European), it is done using Hugo
