I wanted to gauge the price that people would be willing to pay to attend the conference:
I'm trying to make this conference as transparent as possible (while still making it economically sound for the team), so I wanted to pitch the question to you guys:
The one in San Jose was 2.5BTC or $250 if I recall correctly. Understandably, your budget would be dependant on the calibre of speakers. Assuming they were prominent and could add some value to you, would you be willing to pay this amount or should it be higher/lower?

To give one answer to this question: I expect this conference to be on a smaller scale than the one in San Jose, which means it would also be a lower price.
Note that the San Jose conference also had a lot of sponsoring going on, so if you don't manage to get some of that, I think you'll run into trouble collecting enough funds.
Good luck organising it! I'll be attending if you manage to pull it off!
