To be honest, I don't see the point of speakers at all. I think being able to meet everyone and have some sort of sale / trade would be sufficient. Shouldn't really be a need for fees.
Definately agree that the two groups are distinct with different needs. However, I don't think either needs an auction, simple sale would be more pleasant.
About the only two advantages I see in being a formal community are the opportunity to meet and group recognition by vendors (be a lot easier than saying "I'm with the BlkWolfe truck").
