Re: [802SEC] Nov 2004 802 Meeting - Some GOOD NEWS !!!



Carl,  All facilities (our 2 overflow Hotels and the Convention Center) are within a 3 block radius of the Hyatt Regency San Antonio, and if you know San Antonio you probably know the blocks there are fairly short.  Walking from any site to any other site should not be a problem at all.  We are studying the network provisioning options in detail now to make sure we have an adequate coverage plan with back-ups.  Proximity-wise we are in far better shape than we were in Portland, and we are looking at possibly doing our social at the Alamo which is just across square from the Hyatt and a fun place to visit.

Keep thinking positive thoughts !!!    :-)

Thanx,  Buzz

Buzz,

How far is this additional meeting space from any projected overflow
hotels?  I seem to recall that with our projected size the Hyatt would
not have enough guest rooms either ...
