LIP financing
How about putting a donation box (instead of a tip box) in the entry rather
than at the exit, and telling people that the recommended donation is NIS30
or NIS50? Call me naive, but I think that if it is presented properly the
majority of the people would just go with the stream and put in the
recommended donation. This way they'd pay an entry fee, but wouldn't feel
like they're paying for a service and it wouldn't be considered so legally
as well.
Another possibility is to push-sell Linux CDs and commercial software
(X-inside, Wabi should be a hit) to every installer at a higher price than
usual (say take 20% for anything sold at party) and give the extra dough to
ILUG. I think that all the software being found in one place and together
with enthusiasts advising them about their usage should make it worth the
higher price for most people.
