Hi,
Some people might already have their own travel insurence. (In NL it is not very extrordinary to have an travel insurence for the whole year, as soon as you go on vacation to abroad Europe, that is already cheaper then two weeks temp. insurence). I don't know how that is in other countries, but might that reduce some costs for you? (Maybe would a reduction in the application be possible?)

What does my passport number have to do with your insurance? If you insist on having the number on line I can always invent a number.

It's the insurance for wikimedians who want to join Wikimania when he/she is in Taipei. Of cause you can use a fake / invented number but you will not get the insurance from the insurance company if there is something unexpected happen when you are in Taipei.
We will apply the travel insurance for every wikimedian or anyone who registered to join Wikimania. And the passport / National ID is the requirement from the insurance company in Taiwan (maybe in other countries / regions also?)
Travel Insurance (information only, the actual insurance content might be offered differently from our insurance company): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_insurance
I will ask the Taipei team to see if we can put more details on the insurance on the Wikimania site.
Hope this helps.
