Actually there are typically two parts to a WebEx. WebEx 0.33/min + teleconference 0.20/min. Total 0.53/min/person charged to the host.
Or a cheaper alternative .33 per minute + .02 for VOIP but this requires a VOIP mic at the sending end.
Some things to consider:
The entire conference does not need to be live via WebEx.
The WebEx does not need to include video.
With some creative agenda planning you might simply offer defined WebEx sessions, when you are actually demonstrating how to do something. This may be only a few hours. Possibly one session per day.

Very true. Someone (else) needs to do this from this end. The biggest problem would be timing. We have not really scripted this, who is going to determine what to broadcast and what not?
Maybe I haven't made myself clear about this.
First of all, I think the idea is GREAT, however.
-Someone else is going to have to figure out how to do it.
-Someone else is going to have to set it up.
-Someone else is going to have to provide all the necessary equipment.
-Someone else is going to have to man it.
-Someone else needs to determine what to broadcast.
-Someone else is needs to provide a Webex account.
-Someone else is going to have to pay for it.
-We will not change our agenda to accommodate a Webex schedule.
-We will not guarantee any type of timeline.
-I will make the room, HS internet connection, power, etc, available for whoever wants to take this on.
I don't think it is fair to ask anyone that has made special arrangements, paid hundreds of dollars to get here and is expecting a one-on-one weekend with the devs to do any of this.
I won't do it, I won't ask our guests to do it and I especially won't ask the 3 devs that have so graciously donated their time to do it.
However, if someone else wants to arrange to make this happen, I will cooperate in every way. I will be setting up the conference room on Friday from noon to 6pm. Email me and I will provide directions.
