Final bump before schedule/registration goes up. Need to push it to Sunday as I've got a couple of meetings that have come up today and I won't be able to watch registration when it goes live.

Sorry for the push, this'll be the last time!

Quick question - I'll probably fly up on the Thursday night. Will we be able to / have to use the group booking code at the HI, or is that only for Friday & Saturday night?

I updated the wiki to reflect that seminar registration is live. Will also update when hotel registration is live.

Cheers.

Sharon/Howie, I registered for the Seminars, but have not received an email with the hotel registration code. When do you think that will be sent? Thanks for all your work.

From post #2 :

"Hotel registration is NOT up yet. Once registration is available all registered attendees will be emailed a link to complete registration and 24 hours later that link will be posted here."

Howie handles the hotel bits. I would expect the registration not to take long, but he may still be working w/ the hotel on the link/code so it might be another day or so. Since you've registered you'll get an email once it's live.

Cheers.
