maybe i'm not following, but it looks like
(food + meeting room) / 3 = $350,921
which is still $113K more than getting the meeting rooms only.
So, with the estimate of 1500 people per session, that makes 76$/IETF for
food and stuff.
15$/day, not too bad, IMO.
Of course, if that'd help, we could just split off "food + beveradge
fees" from the attendance, e.g. extra 10 or 15 dollars per day or 50-75$
for the whole thing. Paying could be voluntary, even -- but it'd be on
your conscience if you ate without paying.
I certainly would be willing (to have my company :-) pay that; all in all,
it's *much* more convenient than to go eat breakfast, go elsewhere looking
for cookies, soda and stuff.
