[Inpycon] Everybody Pays Policy

[Abhishek Mishra]

On Kiran's compasions -

Agile India is run by a training company, not by a community, most probably
also not by any kind of external volunteers.

UX-India - The 10k quote is for the last moment walk-ins and limited to 10.
So that is a misquote, and a wrong comparison. While taking the same, the
student discount is mere 2.5k, 1/4th the highest.

UX-India, quite a number of speakers are from NY, California, and other
parts of USA. UMO is mostly supported by design schools around India, so
the high price of the tiickets may be to cover for those.

Again, not so much of a open community, quite more like design schools'
community.

JSConf asia, quite an amazing venue. But as you try to find traces of
community, in their about section at the very bottom, you will find two
individuals. Even the communication of feedbacks is not open to all. Many
speakers are from sponsoring orgs.


It's very hard, or maybe wrong to compare community driven, controlled,
event like PyCon India with such examplers and then decide if the prices
should go north or what policy should be followed.
