This is great news, Robyn. I'll be waiting on the edge of my seat to
see our rooms get confirmed.
The cost for the rooms is completely reasonable and will be no
problem. I'm going to drop Adam a note to say thank you again for his
help.
I've promised him "liquid cookies" next time I get to see him. :) He's
awesome - had to do tons of running around for this (and still is on
the hook for a class in August). He said he'd let me know as soon as
he has the confirmation - and I'm also on the approved "contact list"
for these rooms / event (which is FUDCon Fedora Conference, since it
has a 25-character limit in the computer), which is also extra win.
