EuroPython limits voting to conference attendees. I don't know how much the votes factor into talk selection, but I could ask someone on the program committee if that would be useful.
For clarity: is that _previous_ conference attendees, or do they require people to sign up while the conference program is still completely blank? The latter would seem to me like making people buy the cat in the bag, which would be fine for a grassroots conference but strikes me as a bit inappropriate for the huge event that the Summit has become.

It's a community conference, and as with ours some percentage of the attendees know they will be coming no matter what talks are scheduled. Talk submitters are included, since I guess they assume if you're submitting a talk you're likely to attend.
