[foss4g2014] Scholarships

[Kristin Bott]

Some thoughts + questions from this corner* -

(Dumb question) -- what are registration costs for attendees, and how is
that tiered? (student / non-profit / for-profit, etc)
Current budget for scholarships = ?
If folks choose to donate/support the conference, do you have those $
slated for supporting the event itself, or could some of that be funneled
to attendees? (Any info from past conferences about how much this might
bring in, assuming that's even a thing that people do?)

Curious to hear more about how this has been dealt with in the past (I'm
pretty new to the game) and potentially interested in putting something
together on this front.
