[FOSS4G2016] admission fee for presenters, workshoppers trainers etc.

[Steven Feldman]

2013 gave no discount to workshop presenters (which they didn’t like but they still presented) or to people presenting in the main conference.

We gave free passes to a small number of invited speakers and many of those were only for 1 day as they didn’t stay for the whole conference.

We had a student bursary scheme for about 8-10 students which was specifically funded by one of our sponsors

We had some volunteer passes - a free day pass if you worked half the day and attended sessions for half
