I would very much like to attend Wikimania, but have no idea if I am going to be able to, because I don't know my schedule that far forward. Would it be possible to register now and reserve my spot, and then pay when I arrive (or cancel some time in July if I can't make it)?
Related: If I do go, I'd like to run a workshop or two there, however I can't be sure that I'll know my schedule well enough to make the 30 April deadline.
What should I do?

I think Simon can answer about registration.
Regarding your workshops: write your abstracts/presentations then the Program Commitee will decide if they will be applied into the main schedule.
If they are, provide a person who can cover you if you can't make it. (Better write your abstracts with someone else.)
Bye the way, the notification of acceptance is ~mid June, I suppose you will know your schedule by then, right? ;)
Hope this was helpful.

You can register and reserve your spot now, and then pay the registration fee later. You may change your reservations before June 1st, 2013, see Modification Policy < https://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Modification_Policy%3E
