OK, then maybe it is best if you try to work something out with
Sanjay. Please keep us informed, and maybe there are others
that can help out.

We, as in ILUG-Delhi, have not charged for attendance in the past,
but do ask local associations to cover any costs incurred for travel,
food, and lodging. Personally, I see no reason why we cannot
charge attendees.

One possible model might be to have a broad training session
that is free of cost, with incidental expenses covered by a local
association. Local associations, and attendees, can then discuss
with the trainers on an individual basis regarding more intensive,
focused sessions.

In this specific case, Sanjay has already said that he is ready
to do this on a commercial basis. You, and anyone else
willing, can take this up further with him.
