You might not call it ridiculously expensive. For me it was/is and I'm
sorry that you don't like that, and if you want to go back and forth on
this, I'll unsubscribe from the list (I probably should given it's now out
my price range actually). You clearly have a higher disposable income than

Christ on a bike, europython used to be affordable. Florence was
ridiculously expensive (when you factor everything in).
Unless when you say 'all inclusive' you mean 'including accommodation'.
I presume the increased costs are at least in part due to the slow shift
towards peak holiday

I'd actually rather cap the number of attendees than raise prices.
I think the most interesting people to meet at the conferences in general have
a limited budget. The come to the conference on their own tab to tell the
world about the cool things they are doing in their spare time.

I find this an unfortunate line of though; EuroPython is the *only*
explicitly European Python conference. Keeping it artificially small
just makes it either less interesting or simply elitist.

Hello Jacob :-)
I'm currently part of the web team for the EP2014 and have attended
EuroPython conferences for the last 4 years. I also helped on the web
team for the last couple of PyCon.DE conferences.
Thank you for these details from the EPS' point of view. They are much
appreciated :-)
I have to correct the 2013 prices: 165/315/370.
Still the prices of the EP 2014 are in a range that make this conference
affordable and reasonably priced. Comparable conferences - often run only for
two or three day - are more expensive.
