Subject: December 2008 F2F logistics
Dates: 2-3-4 December Location: Oracle, 1211 SW 5th Avenue, Suite 800, Portland, OR 97204 http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=1211+SW+5th+Avenue,+Suite+800,+Portland,+OR+97204&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=41.003738,58.447266&ie=UTF8&ll=45.519248,-122.684283&spn=0.017771,0.028539&z=15&iwloc=r14&layer=c&cbll=45.515502,-122.679516&panoid=wBDWIO5L-HTsqLq5JY5lZQ This is in downtown. Closest airport: PDX (http://pdx.com/) Hotels: There are plenty of hotels within walking distance from the location. Use your favorite website to search for one. The closest hotel is Hilton (http://www1.hilton.com/en_US/hi/hotel/PDXPHHH-Hilton-Portland-Executive-Tower-Oregon/index.do). The Oracle negotiated rate is 132 USD/night. I *think* you can get that rate if you ask for the Oracle rate. Getting to Oracle from PDX: Distance is about 15 miles, you can either rent a car at the airport (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=pdx&daddr=1211+SW+5th+Ave+%23+800,+Portland,+OR+97204+(Oracle)&hl=en&geocode=%3BFQ6CtgId8Qyw-CFMUy9w27zSLg&mra=ls&sll=45.531605,-122.605362&sspn=0.142137,0.22831&layer=c&ie=UTF8&ll=45.53858,-122.609138&spn=0.142119,0.22831&z=12) or take the public transport (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=pdx&daddr=1211+SW+5th+Ave+%23+800,+Portland,+OR+97204+(Oracle)&hl=en&geocode=%3BFQ6CtgId8Qyw-CFMUy9w27zSLg&mra=ls&dirflg=r&date=10%2F08%2F08&time=4:44pm&ttype=dep&noexp=0&noal=0&sort=&sll=45.53858,-122.609138&sspn=0.142119,0.22831&layer=c&ie=UTF8&ll=45.544351,-122.612915&spn=0.142105,0.22831&z=12&start=0). Keep in mind that most downtown hotels will charge you for parking. Trimet (http://trimet.org) Red Line train (http://trimet.org/schedules/maxredline.htm) goes from PDX to downtown and is quite convenient (costs only $2.30!). All buses, trains and streetcars within the fareless square (http://www.trimet.org/fares/fareless.htm), which includes all of downtown Portland are free. So if you want to stay further away from the office location and not rent a car, check out the Trimet trip planner (http://www.trimet.org/go/cgi-bin/plantrip.cgi) Wireless internet access, polycom, and projector will be provided. There will not be wired internet access. -Anish --
