Arne,
Current count is 270 attendees, but we still have reconfirmation
upcoming, late signups, and we historically send bags to sponsors.
I'd *guess* that 300 should cover it, but any extra time you can give
us to reconfirm number would really help. (We have a reconfirmation
deadline in about a week.)
When do you need a final count?
