Helsinki team,

Couple questions;

- Your chosen venue, the Marina Congress Center, has a maximum
capacity of 700, in the Fennia rooms. Do you anticipate capping
attendance at 700?
- Historically FOSS4G has drawn a majority of attendees from the
region around the event. International attendance is always a much
smaller minority of attendance. The FOSS4G program is in English. Do
you anticipate any difficulties generating interest in an
English-language-only program in Finland and surrounding countries?
- Similarly the majority of sponsorship for the event has come from
local government and companies. What entities and organizations in
Finland and Scandinavia do you expect will support FOSS4G financially?

Yours,

Paul
