[Global_conference_committee] **TIME SENSITIVE** GCC Policy Exception?

[Tom Brennan]

Agreed, but not the context of a conference it gets tricky.  Your promoting a open organization and training as part of the conference and then you have a closed class... mixed messages.  This is a separate topic from conference  activities.

But if the highest rated trainers (or worse, the only skilled trainers on either of these two topics) skip the open classes and opt for the pre-booked, solid profit classes the community is missing out on training that would otherwise be, hence not an addition. In such a case I see trouble ahead, such as complaints from attendees as well as other trainers.
