Re: [802SEC] Singapore plenary session tutorials



Sounds fine to me. Frankly, I have a hard time imagining people coming
and registering solely to attend one of our session tutorial slots,
either before or after this idea, so I see the net cost as zero.

It would help connect us to the local technical community, acting as a kind of extension of the Saturday workshop. The marginal cost to us would be about zero, I think. We would lose out on some revenue that might have been generated from folks who would have attended only the tutorials, but I think it would be a good investment. I suppose another risk is related to the additional uncertainty regarding the number of seats we need. However, I suppose we have sufficient space to handle that.
