[FOSS4G-Oceania] Conference Presenters and their Attendance

[Alex Leith]

Hi All

Just want to establish a policy direction on conference presenters.

My suggestion is that conference presenters are made aware that they need
to register, but if they don't want to, they can attend their session and
the break immediately afterwards. We can tell them something like the
following:

*“We are aiming for an engaging and participatory conference, with minimal
distinction between presenters and attendees. While we really appreciate
all our presenters and would love to provide them with a free ticket, we
have opted instead to try and keep registration prices low and are asking
presenters to purchase a registration. If that is not possible for a
presenter, they may attend free of charge for the session they are
presenting in, and the break immediately afterwards.”*

Can I please have your views on this, and if we agree, I'll write it down
somewhere.

Cheers,

Alex
