I feel like it was at some points, but I guess that really just depends
on what people consider "crowded." Although I'm sure that... well, if we
had good internet, we all would have been working a lot, regardless of
the space.

In Toronto, the hack room never felt overcrowded.  But I don't know how the
space (even with a bed) compares to Toronto.

I would go with the meeting room but I am highly people-phobic so my
opinions are a bit tainted.

OK, fellow planners -- I asked about the suitability of the extra king
suite as a social area (for the hack suite).  The response makes me
think we'd be better off paying the same amount ($200/night) for the
meeting room we already reserved for Friday night.  We could even take
the meeting room for Friday through Monday nights, to accommodate
hackers who are leaving on Tuesday 2/1.

Opinions?

 Paul, I sent my mailing address to you via email.

 Although is not a requirement, the invitation letter will be helpful since
 there is no formal registration paper for FUDCon.

 Thanks,

 pfrields reminded me that it is about time to start pushing advertisement
 of the event around campus. We should get our contact in ASU CIDSE, Jon
 Delaney, to send out an announcement mail to the faculty and staff about
 our event.

 I've been meaning to mail him for a while now, I can take care of this one

 for your visa.  I'm working on plane tickets today.

 Sorry, I just read your earlier comments more carefully Igor -- I see that
 you do need a letter.  We'll prepare that for you immediately.

 I need from you the following information:
  * Your full mailing address

 I'll send you a PDF of an invitation letter addressed to you, which you
 can print out.  According to the US Dept of State the invitation letter is
 not a requirement for a B-1 visa, but it can't hurt either.
