I think on-site housing is pretty scarce, though we’re going to make more high-density rooms in response to demand for that. Tickets aren’t scarce, our venue could fit like a 700 person event, so I don’t expect to hit the limits.
Yep! My guess is I will send one out to people who bought tickets next week, along with various spreadsheets for signing up to activities with (e.g. giving a lightning talk).
(I personally strongly prefer slack for a bunch of UI reasons including threading and especially because I always find the conversational culture on discord disorienting, though I know manifest has a community discord so it might be worth using discord.)
Still working on setting it up, once I have the details I’ll announce them (e.g. pricing and whatnot).
I’m aiming to have childcare available in some form for the full 9-day LessOnline-to-Summer-Camp-to-Manifest period. I’m excited for folks to come with their full families.
I’m not a parent, but if I was I expect I would need this locked down before I could commit. And I would need to decide on attendance earlier, because traveling with kids is a lot more work.

How scarce are tickets/”seats”?
I think on-site housing is pretty scarce, though we’re going to make more high-density rooms in response to demand for that. Tickets aren’t scarce, our venue could fit like a 700 person event, so I don’t expect to hit the limits.
Is there going to be some sort of slack or discord for attendees?

How’s the childcare situation looking? Last I heard it wasn’t clear and the organizers were seeing how much interest there was in it.
Launched a few days ago, the plan is:
Kids tickets are $50
There’s daycare purchasable on-site from 10am to 7pm, for like $10/hour if you book ahead of time or $30/hour if you use it on-the-day
If you want connection to a nanny for outside of those hours we have a service that can help with that at $45/hour.
Happy to get feedback on this, still figuring out what exactly helps parents and how to set it up right.
That just sounds great, thanks.
