Re: [Debconf-team] Questions / Information for pre-registration, please review

Is the goal here to have people actually pre-register or just to get some numbers for planning purposes? If the immediate goal is to just get some ideas for basic planning, a three question survey would do it and probably be better. You wouldn't even need to have accounts or e-mail addresses. :)
