Pursuant to discussion at NetGurus 2022, we have decided to implement a $25 registration fee, which will allow us to offer boxed lunches. Boxed lunches will make it easier for attendees with earlier flights to get something to eat. We will no longer have a drink and snack provided in the afternoon as a result.
