Hello, Few updates and reminders for these planning to attend the XLDB-2011 conference. Lightning talks / posters deadline ---------------------------------- The deadline for submitting lightning talks and/or poster abstracts is approaching. We will accept the abstracts until September 15 (end of the day). There will be no extension, if you plan to submit one, make sure you submit it before the deadline. Special hotel group rate ------------------------ The special hotel rate cut off date is approaching too. We still have few rooms left at a special rate ($102) at the Stanford Guest House, which is located on SLAC campus - walking distance to the conference. The deadline to book rooms at the Stanford Guest House is Sept 9 - after that date we have to release the block of rooms kept for us. The special rate at the Sheraton is valid until Sept 16. SciDB Community Meeting ----------------------- The SciDB team decided to hold a short community meeting at SLAC immediately after the end of the official XLDB program and before the conference reception/dinner on the first day of the conference, (Tuesday). Registration is not required - everybody is welcome to attend, including these not attending the XLDB conference. Best regards, Jacek
