I'm curious as well, but simply to understand why Microsoft would even waste time discussing the rate for a 2-day workshop.

  I'm guessing that somebody pitched it to their superiors as a free solution with all the source code they could just take over and use, and now they had to have an awkward conversation about spending some money on the author. At which point it behooved them for it to at least be as cheap as possible.
