Re: [UG-ADMINS] Barcelona PHP Conference

+1.

Together with a collegue I'm planning a conference for the Belgian /  
Dutch PHP developers too, probably around early 2009. Pretty much all  
info is helpful here, there's a lot to be concidered when planning  
such an event. We're not very far in the planning stage yet, so expect  
more updates/questions/hints later on :-)

Some things that are definitely interesting are for example:
- how to approach possible sponsors
- what can be done wrt advertising / marketing / community awareness
- what's common wrt expenses for (international) speakers?
- pricing strategies (early bird, discounts, ..)
- checklists for expenses (beamers, wifi, tagchains, goodie bags,  
catering, ...)

Kind regards,

Felix De Vliegher
