[pgcon-announce] PGCon 2016 - more residence rooms available

[Dan Langille]

Hello,

* residence accommodation

U90, the main residence building on campus at University of Ottawa is a sought-after 
accommodation.  Not only is U90 reasonably priced, it is also close to the talks and tutorials.
Need to duck back to your room to grab something?  It is only minutes away. 

More rooms in U90 have recently become available because non-PGCon groups have 
cancelled their reservations.

NOTE: We have no financial interest in room occupancy and it is not related to the costs
of other conference facilities. We know how much those who stay in residence love it, and
want others to take advantage of rooms which are now available.


* About PGCon

PGCon 2016 will be held on 17-21 May (Tue-Sat) at University of Ottawa.

Tutorials will be on 17-18 May (Tue & Wed).
