There are 300 rooms at the IETF rate.  They told us that in Yokohama, and it 
says that on the website.

They know it’s not enough, but it was all they could get.

How many rooms where blocked at the $209 rate ?

I think this is a rigged game. I bet a large percentage of rooms
will have been booked before the email by folks in the IETF that are
in the know.

Show us a log from the hotel when each of the booking was being made,
then we will know.

I reserved a room fine, from the hotel info page on the ietf95 site not 
the link on the email (tho they may be the same)

300 rooms will fly off the shelf???

I just got a booking, but had to adjust the arrival/departure dates to
get that booking.

$ 250 per night (including taxes)... Duuh.

(At least I don't have to pay for a visa.)

Grüße, Carsten

Really? Is that because there is an IETF block and we do not know the 
code, or are we SOL, nine minutes into registration?

For a paltry USD 450/night (including tax), we can get in on Tuesday 
April 5.

Really?
