My scam radar is pinging, big time.

#1) No venue costs
#2) No speaker fees (I assume WP speakers generally speak for free)
#3) The 1,000 "passes" will generate $69,000 that will go toward... what, exactly?
#4) Registration is open, but the speaker list is... non-existent
#5) Registration *after* the first 1,000 will be "recording-only" (why? what technological limit exists for 1,000 live viewers?), and will cost *more* than $69 (again, why? one would think that the live viewing would cost more than the post-event archive access.)
#6) I see no real-world contact information for any of the "event" organizers (just a contact form)
#7) Promise of a "virtual schwag bag of goodies" to the first 1,000 registrants - again, with no details whatsoever
#8) Only 2 blog posts in over a month - with still no details whatsoever

The whole thing is just really suspect.
