say let's not do that next time. Let's fix it to 1000 participants and no
more. I only have the request to check out IISc as a venue and compare it

Not really. AFAIK Audi has capacity around 700 and banquet hall capacity is
around 200 - 300.

The Audi 1 is in first floor and hall is in ground floor.

We could ask all the participants to pick the slots that they are
interested in and use that info to schedule the talks.
