+1 for the conference overall - wake up, get there, morning announcements,
get the day started.   I suspect the same people will turn up even if there
isn't a raffle.  but raffles are fun,.

+1 to help get more people up and moving for the first talks.

+1 for a well defined start of day for the video team.  (details are in my
report)
