Hi Everyone, We have had a very strong early registration showing. We have planned for a larger event than the past years but with the early registrations we have already registered over 50% of the capacity of our venue. We're looking forward to a great event. I'm writing to point out that the rooms reserved for our attendees at a discount will both no longer be discounted and will no longer be reserved for our attendees after tomorrow, the 21st. [1] We have talked to the Illinois Office of Tourism and they are expecting close to 100% occupancy in Chicago area hotels over the weekend of ROSCon. So if you are planning to attend ROSCon and have not already made your hotel room reservations we suggest that you do it before the discounted rooms are no longer available. We look forward to seeing you all at ROSCon next month! Your ROSCon 2014 Organizing Committee [1] http://roscon.ros.org/2014/location/
