I'd suggest a model where *everyone* pays (except possibly press).  That
lowers the cost for everyone; if someone really can't afford $150 or less
for registration, we can have a "scholarship" fund.  We can also do it
like science fiction conventions, where profits are plowed into reg
refunds *after* the conference.
