It isn't TED, but from the get go I've had outreach as a primary goal with
this event, and I've been planning and programming with that in mind. This
doesn't have to set a precedent for future Wikimanias. Technical concerns
aside, what negative outcomes are you imagining?

comfortable with that level of
advertising (in fact it makes me very very uncomfortable) even if it works
technically. This isn't TED....and I would hate to see it turn into that
especially given the wide variety in organizers each year.

My understanding is that this is far from a decided thing. There are
still some massive concerns about your servers rolling over and dying with
the traffic we send from this - particularly for streaming video which is
already a bandwidth hog. I'd want to see some testing first.
