Re: [ubl] Reminder: Hotels for UBL Plenary

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

I'm staying at the Island Pacific Hotel listed in the recommended list as 
that is where I have arranged to deliver my XSL training the week after the 
UBL meeting.  The quoted price in the invitation including breakfast seemed 
very attractive.  Note that to make the reservation you have to use the 
Word document that Jon included in his post, otherwise (as I learned the 
first time) you won't get that price.

For those who might be interested, I'm running two publicly-subscribed XSL 
courses, three days on XSLT and two days on XSL-FO, in Hong Kong May 17-21, 
the week after UBL, then going on to teach the same two courses in Germany 
May 24-28.  Details for both are linked from our home page.

Thanks for spreading the word if you know anyone in Asia or Europe who 
might be interested in attending either of these hands-on courses.
