It would be good if possible to make sure even if they are not "specifically" Kosher of Halal, that vegetarian meals fulfill the broad requirements, which will be good enough for many people.  For example, it would be good if the vegetarian meals didn't include alcohol in their ingredients (or had an option not to include alcohol).

Hi Chris,

My understanding is that there are issues of supply and cost for specifically Kosher or Halal meals.
This was the case for Wikimania in London too where we were looking at >£50 a head for Kosher (if I remember correctly).

I have just registered (yay for registration opening!) but I note on the registration form:

"Dietary preference. Please note, we cannot accommodate Halal or Kosher."

Does this really mean what it says? Presumably people who want halal or kosher food can safely select the vegetarian option? 

Chris
