[802.1] Re: [LinkSec] REMINDER - June Interim Meeting
Just to reinforce Glenn's request, our Sponsors take on a significant
financial risk by offering to guarantee the room block for the meeting
hotels, so they would appreciate your help in registering/booking in a
timely manner. If you plan to attend the June interim, please register
and book your hotel room before the cutoff date.
Regards,
Tony

Folks,
As you may know, Nortel Networks is hosting the interim 802.1 meeting in Ottawa, June 2-6.
As a reminder, the hotel room block is only held until May 1st. As well, the meeting registration fee (that covers meeting room, AV, and breakfast/lunch/coffee costs) will also go up after May 1st. In order to reduce or increase our commitment to the hotel (for hotel rooms, meeting rooms and food), we need to have a good idea of how many are attending this meeting.
The rates before May 1st are:
Hotel room - CDN$135 (~US$85)
Meeting fee - US$275
The rates after May 1st are:
Hotel room - ~CDN$230 (~US$150)
Meeting fee - US$325
As a result, I encourage you to register before the May 1st cutoff date.
The registration details are linked from the IEEE 802.1 web page. Or the direct link is:

Hope to see you in Ottawa!!!
Cheers,
Glenn.
PS, there is a clarification on how to get the $135 meeting rate for the hotel when booking online that Dolors helped us discover:
