Bill,
Only thing I see right now is that the price of a convention for people
used to getting their software FREE, is a bit high. The hotel is high, the
booths are high, the tables are high, . My personal opinion is make it
reasonable for ANYONE to attend with an interest in FreeBSD. You'll get more
people and exposure. Isn't that what we want guys?
If I was an employee of a firm who was sending me to the conference and the
firm was paying for it.....hey no problem. But, most of us are self-employed
and trying to make a profit. I would love to go with my tech who I'm
training, but for just one of us to go is out of our reach.
This conference doesn't have a track record yet, on how many people will be
there, etc.. right?
This would help me figure out if it would be worth my effort to have a booth
or table there.
