Squeak BOF at OOPSLA

Looking forward to the BOF (Birds Of a Feather) session at OOPSLA.
Maybe I'll try to keep the informal Squeak "bug fixing party" going at
Camp Smalltalk there this year, too.

Just a quick suggestion to anyone going to OOPSLA who hasn't booked a
hotel room yet:  I was originally going to try to find a somewhat
cheaper hotel downtown than the suggested ones (which had "special"
OOPSLA rates of $140-$150 per night), such as the Holiday Inn several
blocks away for about $100.  But then I happened to try priceline.com,
and set a price of $50/night for any 3-star hotel, and it actually
reserved the Marriott Waterside (adjacent to the conference, originally
$150)!  (This was for Sat.-Wed.)

>What do people know of other activities on Tuesday night?  It would be
great to start the BOF at 7pm, but we could slide a bit later if there
are serious conflicts.

Just to follow up, for those of you attending:  I have made a request
for a room from 7 to 9 on Tuesday evening, with a provision that we
might slide it later in case of conflicts.  I'll confirm what we know
for sure the week before the conference.

Perhaps someone active on comp.lang.smalltalk could forward this
preliminary plan.

Thanks
