[foss4g2014] Setting Conference Pricing

[Darrell Fuhriman]

Yah, I was mentioning in private, we’d probably need at least 15 food carts to serve 800 people in a reasonable amount of time and I doubt there are that many genuinely mobile carts available.

It’s a pretty big kink in an otherwise great idea….

In OCC’s experience in planning their own events, it has been difficult to get food cart vendors to agree to come to the venue since only a nominal amount of carts within the city are portable.
