Great conversation and a lot of talk about something that seems very normal to me.

Everyone has a certain perspective. I have been going to conferences for 20+ years. Some great, some okay, and others crappy. Prices all over the board.

Anytime a new conference starts, depending on the price, there will always be some hesitancy. It's normal. Some flourish, others bite the dust.

I love WordCamps. They work. But our so-called "community" has fallen into a rut when it comes to pricing anything. Comparing LoopConf to a WordCamp, well, we are talking apples and oranges.

I enjoy seeing this happening. Welcome to the real world. And I wish the best for LoopConf :)
