one of my ex-students (who is a student) reached out to me
about this and asked if i could help her with this. $50
is more than she could afford. i told her to register and
that i’d pay for her “at the door”. so, i think that the
money payment is definitely keeping folks away, but, i’d
really prefer not to remove that, since it does help keep
our numbers manageable (this from a “free” afpif last
week, where we had 700 registrants *confirm* attendance,
and then 413 arrive)

We have always had room for free participants. In the past,
the delivery mode was OC members got 10 complimentary codes
and would issue those to their network to rego for free. Do
we feel this is something that would help? If so, we can get
those codes quickly issued and we can all distribute them to
those we feel should come but can't afford to.<br>
<br>
More than likely, it will be local folk, as anyone spending
money to fly into DAR can afford US$50.<br>

i think worthy questions are: <br>
# is $50 too high for the local (non-student) attendees?
noah, or someone else from the area?

<p class="MsoNormal"><span><br>
Valid question. If we feel it's too high, I'm certain we can
consider lowering it, or having a lower fee for students.<br>

I think we need to do more of this. By my count, I expect
the majority of participants will come from Tanzania.<br>
