Our wiki page is clear on this. > Following up my question during the meeting, I've prepared the following list of rooms x days:
DebCamp + DebConf (14 days): Club lounge + room 302 (hacklabs) = 500 x 14 = 7000 Green room (server room) 200 x 14 = 2800 Only for DebConf (7 days): Ballroom (main talk room) 1000 x 7 = 7000 Madeleine Parent + Lev Bukhman (seconf talk room) 650 x 7 = 4550 Blue room (small meetings/BoF) 200 x 7 = 1400 Total: 22750 CAD (We might still add some amount for CW and conference dinner... did you think of possible locations?) Please double check I got the right numbers, and discuss with the team if you agree this is a good plan. Then, if all is good would you mind updating the wiki? I saw you were not considering the green and blue room, but I think they would be useful as small meeting room and server room. http://ssmu.mcgill.ca/events/booking-timing/blue-room/ Regarding the security prices, I think the table in the wiki is a bit confusing, I'd rather have rental and security numbers separated. Also, IMHO the setup "7AM to 6PM" is not good for us, neither is Mon-Fri ;-) So I suggest you to focus on 2 quotations only: (1) 24h for the 14 days; or (2) 24h for 7 days (DebConf) + "7AM to midnight" for 7 days (DebCamp). This can be fine tunned later, it would be just to help us have an idea. > I do think that The Nest would be able to do so. The people I met at SSMU > implied so.

But maybe they are used to cater to big events, I don't know. In anyways, you should definitely contact them directly, as well as the other 2 restaurants. IMHO they 3 make a nice combination together, people would have more choices and the service would run more smoothly. Good luck!
