[AusNOG] AusNOG-02

[David J. Hughes]

Hi

The idea of a sliding scale with a good discount up front sounds like  
a great idea.  That could take the pressure of AusNOG finances by  
banking funds before a deposit would need to be paid to the venue.   
However, this time around we are already past that point, and as Steve  
pointed out, we really need to get a reasonable float to ensure the  
future viability of the conference.

This is certainly something we could look at for AusNOG-03 though!
