[OSGeo-Conf] FOSS4G2027 bid process stage two: questions time

[Paul Ramsey]

Thanks Vasile,

On the budget I am little surprised to see almost no expense lines outside of the venue and A/V. And the A/V seems quite low given (as noted in the bid) the generally high cost of doing video capture at professional quality over multiple tracks of a conference like this. I am please to see the discount registration fee is set above the fixed costs per delegate, but I do not see a student fee? They usually end up less than cost, so must be managed a little during registration (can’t have too many).

The conference venue fee seems to include lunch, but not any morning/breakfast beverage service? 

Thanks

P
