ResidentialCollegeAccommodation

Hi all!

This year at linux.conf.au, the residential college arrangements will be a little different from most years – we think for the better! We're not only offering the usual conference networking, but a couple of different styles of accommodation also.

The single room university accommodation comes in two flavours : Single rooms in the residential college itself. These rooms are just a bed and desk with a communal bathroom arrangement, sharing with others in the dorm. More info can be found at http://www.utas.edu.au/accommodation/prospective/hbt/christ/index.htm

What will make this year different however, is that we are offering a number of 6 bedroom dorms also, for the same price. These dorms have one bathroom shared with 3 rooms, kitchen and lounge and meeting areas so are a lot more flexible and quiet.

This also means if you're travelling to LCA in a group, you can choose to stay next to your mates. More information and floor plans can be found at http://www.utas.edu.au/accommodation/prospective/hbt/selfcatered.htm

Rather than randomly allocating everyone, we thought, why not give you the option to choose who you'd like to stay with? So, if there's other delegates who are also booked into Uni accommodation who you'd like to have a room near, please let us know!

Although the organising team will do their best to accommodate your preferences, we cannot guarantee that we'll be able to put all of your choices in the same apartments. First in, first served! Please make sure you email us with your request at accommodation@marchsouth.org by Sunday 11th January 2009.

You can use this space and the LCA09_Chat mailing list to organise with other people.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

The linux.conf.au 09 team.
