Dear Sevilla-LOC (SLOC),

after reading carefully your great LoI, I'd like to ask the following
questons:

- Do you expect, that you can attract your supporting organisations also
to sponsor the event?

- You expect 80% of the attendees to pay the registration fee. Although
I am a friend of a very careful calculation, nevertheless I'd like to
ask, who you expect not to pay the fee - at least 20% of expected 1200
attendees are 240 people, that will receive a free ticket?

- There was a big discussion about how we can open the conference for as
many attendees as possible. Of course, this also is a function of the
whole package price (travel, accommodation, conference fee,). Could you
please line out, what your plans are in order to make a travel to FOSS4G
2019 possible for as many people (especially students,  people from
3rd-world countries) as possible?


FYI: I also put the questions in the WIKI [1]. You might direct edit
there and inform the list via email.
