The hefty price increase will probably keep me home this year. Even with a 15% discount as an attendee last year plus a 40% discount as an employee at a non-profit organization, it would cost me 2x as much to attend this year as last!

There are plenty of other tech conferences costing several times more than RailsConf (see MySQL and Web 2.0 conf for starters). Plus, at 55% off your only paying $400. $100 a day - not bad for tech training. At least it''s not in some remote, exotic location that costs $1k just to fly to...

In any case, the airfare and hotel (and dinners) will come to more than the conference itself. Not a bad deal overall. I don''t know why they even bother having a "Regular" rate -- the "Early Birds" are all there are, right? ;-) Strangely, I registered for RailsConf2006 on 2/2/2006 and now RailsConf2007 on 2/2/2007.

But the base price increase over last year ($200) is 322.5% (early bird @ $645) or 397.5% (standard @ $795)! Seems very hefty to me. Maybe I''m just cranky, though, because the total price (conf. + travel + hotel) is beyond my budget right now.

The corrected increases are 161.25% (early bird) and 198.75% (standard). Definitely not as hefty as I thought.
