Hotel earlybird special rates have expired as of this past Friday.
There are lots of big and small hotels in Ottawa, but they will fill up
fast as Winterlude approaches, so book something soon.  There may be
some possibilities to billet locally, but don't leave it last minute.

The call for proposal deadline was this past Saturday, so expect a
schedule to be published this week.


Here is the post-CFP deadline update of the activity so far in NetDev

currently making their way through the technical committee vetting
