RE: [Swarmfest2007] Urgent Questions relating to SWARMFEST2007Registration

[Lytinen, Steve]

The University Center made it very difficult for us to provide too many options 
for check-in and check-out.  If you want to stay 3 nights (7/11-7/13), then 
please register for 4 nights (7/11-7/14), and I will reimburse you while you 
are in Chicago.  Please note that check-out at the University Center is 10 AM; 
so if you are leaving on the evening of July 14, you will still have to check 
out by 10 AM on July 14, and then you will have to ask them to hold your bags 
for you during the day.

Subject: [Swarmfest2007] Urgent Questions relating to SWARMFEST2007Registration


To: Conference Organizers for SWARMFEST 2007

  I plan to attend SWARMFEST 2007.

To fill in the Reg form,  I request answers to the following:

1)  I shall be attending the Repast Tutorial on July 12 -- this is one of the 
main reasons why I am coming to the SWARMFEST.

   So I plan to arrive there on July 11,
and stay there 3 nights -- July 11, 12, 13.      I shall leave on July 14 
evening.

   NOTE:  3 nights , July 11 - July 13 is not one of the listed options on the 
form.
        It should be.  Many of us will probably be doing this.
[ Suggestion:  Please change your form to ask us to state for which nights we 
require acommodation, and not give restricted options. ]
--------------------------------------

2) I attended SWARMFEST 2006 at Notre Dame ( June 2006) -- this was in 
conjunction with NAACSOS 2006.

   In most such Conferences, the Reg Fee includes a year's membership.
Was this so for me last year ?

[ If so, am I entitled to the Member Rate for this year (SWARMFEST 2007) ?

---------------------------------------------------------------------

3)  Is the Reg and Housing deadline June 11 or June 16 ?
I have seen both listed.

As I shall be travelling for a few days preceding June 11, it will be very 
helpful to know this very soon.
   I would like to register right now, if I get the answers to my questions 
very soon.
----------------------------------------
4) Can you send me a preliminary list of session papers at the Conference ?

I would appreciate an early reply.

Thank you.
