Re: R: R: [BOFChairs] IETF 94 - Registration and Hotel Information - no availablity

At the risk of repeating myself, there will be a JTB link which 
allows reservations several other nearby hotels. I agree that
this ideally should have been available at the time registration and
booking for the main hotel opened, but I understand that there are
legitimate reasons why this did not happen. Look for more information
from Ray this week.

In Vienna the hotel was not connected to the meeting venue
but still had plenty of space.  There are probably a lot of
reasons for wanting to stay in the meeting hotel.  It
would not be surprising if there's a hotel rush for IETF
95 as a result, including more reservations made by people
who might be going but aren't sure, since we've got no way
of knowing if there are 300 rooms or 1300 rooms.

I suppose this is an appropriate please to inject yet another
plea for de-emphasizing meetings in IETF process.
