I remembered you saying that this an unconference. So an unconference does
not pick up attendees, speakers, so please make up your mind what you want
it to be - a "traditional" conference you said you don't want it to be or a
barcamp style? I am getting confused.

So are you concerned that they have to pay more?

I am OK if you wanna pick them up. But seeing that many are students or
young adults who may have limited funds...I am just concerned that it may
be taxing to them. They may be willing but sometimes we need to curb their
enthusiasms. Not cools to have them RM20 bucks for the rest of the month.
