Right - the price should be lower, but in terms of availability of outside
food (and therefore the frequency with which people choose to eat outside
the conference), New York and Edinburgh are probably good models for what
we'll find. Banja Luka may as well, since the conference was fairly central
in the city with a number of restaurants around.
Ah, got it. So, in terms of projecting head-counts for the cafeteria,
numbers from those past DebConfs will provide the most accurate
approximation. If, say, 40% of attendees skipped the conference-provided
dinner in those cities, then we can build that same percentage into our
projections with a fair degree of confidence. Sounds good.
