Re: Cancelled or not?
I love TFCon, and I really hate that this will affect it.
I think the more likely scenario is having to cancel it.
You could run it if you kept the same size of show, but had a space 5x larger, with everything spread out, and hundreds of volunteers monitoring traffic flow and enforcing the 2m distancing.
You'd have traffic laneways, unidirectional, and then 'parking' areas spaced 6 feet apart for transactions with the booths. credit/debit only, no browsing or fumbling through loose bins. Kids would hate it - a warehouse of toys and no touching.
The lineup to get in would be insane. Any speakers or seminars would need either a giant room, or a normal room with a capacity limit of 30 people or so. I think you'd have to forgo custom classes or any shared event.
Ultimately it would take up the same space as the auto show, but far less dense, less friendly, and overwhelmingly expensive. I don't think I want that TFCon.
