As far as I understood, we can host 150 people, using sleeping bags up to 200.

There is no difference between eV and non-eV-members. Attendees have to cover 
the lodging costs by themselves. 
In case we have too many attendees, of course no eV-member will be turned 
away, since we need everyone for the membership meeting.

Everyone is welcome to stay during the hacking session. We only don't have 
many computers (20-40?). I heard some rumour about a hardware sponsor, but 
nothing sure yet. And of course everyone who has a laptop should bring it.

I hope these answers help.
