Well, yes, it's for the WOCommunity Store, so WOWODC tickets, membership and 
anything else we might sell (books, the USB stick, etc.) in the future. What I 
wrote in the past is using properties that defines the discount for conference 
items and using conditions on quantity to find which one to apply. But it's a 
bit more complex now, because of the membership.

About the rules engine, even if it's overkill, I went to a business analyst 
course in the last couple of weeks and it would be a good practice to apply 
what I learned.
