I had thought that to ensure the cost of the conference was kept to a
healthy level that organizations would send no more than 2
representatives plus one optional guest. This seems to not be the case
looking at the proposed attendee list[1] with the UK sending a massive
party of 8 people (excluding Wikimania representatives), significantly
larger than any other Chapter or Thorg.
Could we please be modest with the movement's money and than some of
these proposed names are withdrawn? I propose setting an absolute
maximum of 3 representatives from any chapter, thorg or user group and
that is enforced rather than a vague guideline.
There will be video conferencing available, costing the movement nothing.
