View source for DebConf11/Registration

This page documents the registration process for DebConf11.  Right now, this is a '''draft''' and thus needs reality checking from the local team and comments from others.  Feel free to edit this page directly.

== Registration categories ==

<!-- We gave up on the goals 
Goals
* Not be a middleperson if we don't have to be
* Minimize the number of separate registration options
* We ''hope'' that people can book rooms with the hotel directly, and save us that step.
--->

=== Categories ===
* '''Corporate registration (€1000)'''  USD 1400/week - includes accommodation and food, if desired.
* '''Professional registration (€450)''' USD 650/week - includes accommodation and food, if desired.
* '''Sponsored registration (food+accommodation provided)''' Free.  Has a deadline for registration.
* '''Basic registration'''.  Free. (no accommodation or food provided.)

Prof. and Corp that want accommodation should pay before some deadline through SPI or FFIS, so that we can reserve the room for them.  After such deadline, we won't be making the reservations.


Then, each of these categories will have these choices:
* Accommodation
** ''Regular Room'' (or
** ''I will arrange my own accommodation''
* Food (this is more for planning purposes rather than a binding choice for attendees -- question to everyone)
** ''I plan to eat on-site, and no restrictions on food''
** ''I plan to eat on-site, and want vegetarian food''
** ''I plan to eat on-site, and want vegan food''
** ''I won't eat on-site''

There will be a note ''If you are sponsored and want to help with part of the cost of room or food, please make a donation (link to payments page), and mail registration@ if you want an invoice.''. (Suggestion: we could suggest approx. prices of food/accom so people know how much they should donate)

If people want a discount for only staying part of the week, they can mail us directly and ask.  We could say something like "$N days or less, you can have a discount", perhaps.

== Timeline ==
* Registration opens: ASAP
* Sponsored registration deadline: May 8
* Last chance for DebConf housing changes:
