Rooms for Wineconf - Please act now
Hi Folks, I know that Wineconf is still over a month away, but you'll really regret it if you don't make your accomodation selections now. If you paypal (or even arrange to mail a check) to me *now*, you'll get to hang out with all the cool people, on campus, and learn what the "Drink-making facilities on each corridor" really means, all for the low low price of about 40 pounds (okay, so the exchange rate sucks, and that's $75 US, but still...) If you *don't* get me an room request in the next few days, then I'll have to close down our room reservation, and you'll be stuck in some sleazy motel on the edge of town paying outrageous sums of of money. (Okay, they actually all look like nice places to stay, but they will be a ways away, and they all cost more :-/). Again, see this page for more details: http://www.winehq.org/site/wineconf/travel If you can't do Paypal, I can take a check in US currency as well. Cheers, Jeremy

I was about ready to send off the payment, but wasn't sure how many days the rooms were booked for. I'd like to stay the nights of the 15th, 16th, and 17th. Is that ok? If so, I'll paypal $75 * 3 tonight. - Dan

Yes, that should be fine; they seem to have room availability before and after. The thing they *don't* have (to my dismay) is rooms with double beds (or they do, but they're very expensive; more than twice). Cheers, Jeremy

Seeing as Dan mentioned that WineConf is for Wine developers only... Would it be very untactful of me to ask you whom of the other wine developers you're sleeping with? :-)

<grin> Well, a few folks are bringing spouses, who are going to go sight seeing during Wineconf (I think we're even going to have 1 baby along...) Cheers, Jeremy

Now, now. Jeremy has code in wine's tree, he counts: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=wine-cvs&s=jwhite (Heck, he has more patches in than I do: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=wine-cvs&s=kegel) - Dan

I think Molle was just having fun, and that there is no confusion, but I just want to state clearly for the record: Everyone is welcome at Wineconf. However, we will unabashedly be focusing on things that only a developer could love. So the 'developers focus' comment is meant as a cautionary (boring, geeks talking incessently about obscure and hard to follow technical threads), not as a 'go away!'. Cheers, Jeremy

He means his warning. The typical off time vi verses emacs or version control system debate can be deadly. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

Heh. No, now we can have angry discussions about why git mysteriously fails, and is too hard to use...
