Re: Schedule Announced for CloudStack Conference

Anyone know if there will be more slots? Or if it matters if more
people come? I wanted to bring someone with me, but unfortunately I
don't know who just yet (probably solidify that this week).

RE: Schedule Announced for CloudStack Conference

Posted by Abhijith Chandrashekar <Ab...@citrix.com>.
Does anybody know if it is OK to attend the conference and not stay at The Venetian. I'm contemplating making other arrangements for stay and attending the conference. 

Thanks,
Abhijith

I did exactly that. I originally booked the entire duration through AWS re:invent hotel reservation system. I called Venetian last week and was able to shorten the reservation (no penalty). I then booked the CloudStack Collab Conference separately.

We have plenty of people signing up for the conference, but because too many people booked hotel through AWS re:invent, we cannot get sufficient credit for conference room from Venetian.

We're going to try to encourage folks who aren't going to attend to
release their tickets, but we are maxed out at 300 attendees. 

We'll be sending out an email tomorrow about that to the currently
registered attendees. We also need for people who have signed up for the
conference to register *in the room block* for the event. (I know we
have some folks who are also attending the AWS event and may have just
signed up for the whole week under that block - that won't work, as
we're committed to a certain number of rooms and The Venetian won't
credit us for folks who aren't signed up under our block.) 

We do have a waitlist available - please sign up there if you have
someone who wants to attend who isn't signed up.

Thanks!

Joe
