It has been clearly announced that we would give out 300 tickets for reduced prices (which is almost 1/3 or 1/4 of all tickets). Nobody did expect that the personal tickets would sell that well (thank btw. to all the people that made an Early Bird purchase). At least the organization team has a financial plan and a budget and it is _obvious_ to every child that can calculate that you can not sell an undetermined number of tickets to a reduced price over some fixed period if you don't want to run over your budget. Adding 50 more tickets to the Early Bird sale gives us possibly less financial flexibility with other things. So I once again reject your "very unprofessional" claim. Many people of the organization team have been Python, Zope and Plone conferences for the last ten years. Feel free to participate in the organization or please think about your allegations next time.
