I think it is the common process of conferences become more expensive as soon as they become larger and more popular. You need a complete different approach to logistics when you deal with up to a thousand people or deal only with small crowd of perhaps 100 to 150 people. I am not in charge for the EP 2014 financial part but it is obvious that you can not organize a conference for the same costs per persons if you deal with 100 attendees or 1000 attendees. More people, more different aspects to be considered, higher costs...I think there is no real way out of there - expect all 1000 attendees in a huge barn and tell them to bring their own beer and burgers..well, perhaps an option :-) Andreas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQGUBAEBAgAGBQJS7Rx6AAoJEADcfz7u4AZjXsMLwJnn/EdjarOwuRT8I1IcMYbz WqWkTlsrarbLG2L5z+OjQJHlaoSjEFaawmuzKhWTxIle2IgN3qCPkctnY4vBp9H3 LNmnetHz0XLY6UESxkAZqLsZXLkN4cUfNtn+qrBWXoiGYX08Yze5nHtFnwarr3NS 8VeM3YFsXqaLVLfwnwVbUq0LXsH4NV7BozqP2RFsGyHhc+c0OWOQ3zDH7GiDS+vr fQV+Zn2dfYyvCP6qJe74BY/aZirIWegAtl0EX5BERooihck38FWtEa3D6w7xP4nV Lfr1qzFBaet7pkbS2jWJ5OHZO+6ECRHTwMm+xTOMVGfTdznmlebANRSroH3rSarL zBg8Xyg/v5Dd8oSotpDi1qt7hFK+W88wSUYPqeWq6jLK/QxiINRKcfyZnfuZpTvt YHxNzq9ermt1U4H2JfDfYWgBApV36/TiPP2d9HPkE3Q8TcpguK+4qrRY3eIzxzbz Xf0vJ6hIoCEmyz+LuVDKeAR4Cp9A+F0= =TpsL -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
