There's some good wording on the following which says: ''Part un-conference, part installfest, and part user group meeting, The UbuCon will take place simultaneously in one large auditorium and 3 - 6 small (~20 people) conference rooms.'' and sums things up really well in one sentence. From http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=348885 * (./) Catering. We've got funding for 50-100 people, and up-front funding to cover at least 50 people. This means that we can go to the caters and sign-up for food/buffet for a minimum of 50 people and tell that there final numbers will likely be bigger.
