The planning part is very nearly trivial, even my pea brain
can figure it out.
Keeping the attendees anonymous is also--if they are
willing--fairly easy for a short (single day) event. It would be
ridiculous, but doable.
Keeping the speakers unknown is a little tougher, since (as I
said in a previous post) the more interesting the speaker, the more
likely he/she is to be recgonized.

How much is it worth to you?
