Hmm... Maybe plan for a few hundred people? (400 - 500?) CGE is typically in the low thousands of visitors. People will come if we have enough authors and vendors, and if we publicize it properly. I'd think about renting something a bit bigger than what we think we might need, just in case. Something with two rooms, the main showroom and a side room that can be filled with chairs, for the guest speakers.
