In reply to David Bisset (@dimensionmedia).

Apparently a paragraph got chopped off when I pasted my comment above. Just one more point: I do not object to having a slightly higher ticket price if your local circumstances do not permit you to have a minimum of event at a cost of the typical WordCamp ticket (it's making work camps more like bigger "professional" conferences that I disagree with). Last time I looked earlier this year, there was enough camp event sponsors to allow a small camp to function without the need of additional sponsors. It might be possible that some of these event sponsors are limited to the United States – I don't know if that's true or not.

In the end I will take someone's word for it if they say it's impossible to produce it working up in their area. Like I said, number of factors.
