(how does the LinuxConf.au distinguish whether one is hobbyist or professional)?
They give additional perks to piratical l professional attendees, like more swag, a listing on the web site (IIRC), employer name on badge (IIRC) and a ticket to the Professional Delegates Networking Dinner. But mostly it's the honor system: people are told that if their employer is paying for their attendance, they are expected to get a professional ticket, so people paying their own way can get a hobbyist or student ticket. In my experience most companies respect this: the honor system seems to be working pretty well for them.
thanks for that information.
So back to my question in the last mail: What are our target groups? Would such a system make sense for us - do we have professional visitors?
On the other hand: offering a "sponsorship attendance fee" would be something similar for whoever wants.
