2011-05-28 Thread Steven Feldman
It appears that the primary hotel in Denver for NANOG 52 is close to being sold out for the night of Tuesday, June 14. We are exploring alternate hotels nearby. It might be possible to get a small room block with a discounted rate at a hotel a few blocks away, but NewNOG would need to guarantee a
