BoostCon 2008 Now Open For Registration

Hi All,

The 2nd annual Boost Conference has been scheduled for May 4-9 2008.
Please see http://www.boostcon.com/registration for registration
information.

If you want to stay at the Aspen Meadows (highly recommended as it is
within walking distance of the conference venue and was the site of
great after-hours discussions in '07), it's especially important this
year that you book your rooms early. Since, unlike last year, Aspen's
airport will be open this May, demand for rooms has been heavy. In fact,
the following week, which we tried to get, was snapped up by another
group before we even had a chance to catch our breath, just weeks after
BoostCon'07 ended. 

We'll be working hard on getting the program together for 2008 over the
coming weeks. We hope to include many more Boost authors and
contributors, and build in several more intensive library-specific
sessions, to make 2008 better than ever. 

Please send any questions to the BoostCon planning committee at:
organizers <at> boostcon.com.

Those of you who didn't make it to BoostCon'07 may want to have a look
at the photo gallery at http://boostcon.com/community/photos, peruse the
2007 program at http://boostcon.com/program, and check out the two trip
reports mentioned here:
http://boostcon.com/news/2007/Jul/16/yet-another-trip-report. See you in
Aspen!

Are there still available rooms at Aspen Meadows? Are they reserved
for the conference? I checked two weeks ago, and their site said they
were all booked, so I've been looking for other accommodations,
but I'd rather stay there again this year.

I confirmed my reservation on Friday and was told there were plenty of rooms
left, but they would most probably disappear quickly.

Many of those rooms were reserved for us, and yet unavailable to us because we
hadn't been able to sign a contract with the Meadows.  Now that's
handled, so... book 'em, Danno.

I sent them a registration request on Sunday, followed it up with a 
call on Tuesday,
and got a confirmation yesterday (Wednesday).
