Something in that range would be quite acceptible for us.  We'ld do that
instead of hiring a booth, since it's much easier to arrange in absentia.

That sounds good... quite impressive in fact, if you make it.  We'ld need
to know roughly the number about 2 weeks ahead of time, so it's not a
big rush.

By the way, your booth prices are indeed very good, and I think that's a
*great* idea because it makes for a potentially much more lively exhibit
at the conference.  Python isn't a big money space at the moment, so I'm
really happy to see you're scaling your conference accordingly. I hope you
get lots of exhibitors.  We'll definately be there for future conferences!
