The BeGeistert team provides for a lot of infra structure like power cords, 
network hubs etc, they handle registration and manage the event on site. 
But the actual organization of the event in terms of booking a place isn't 
_that_ much work. The bigger problem is that for such a large group, places 
like the hostel I booked for BeGeistert one year ago will not be available 
anymore. You have to book several months in advance to get the conference 
rooms, and there are not many hostels large enough. I have no clue about 
alternatives to youth hostels, but I would assume there are some.

Best regards,
