I think you'll find I am.

As I suggested before, but will now do in my detail I believe the 
schedule should be as follows:

Sunday: TEI Hackfest (optional: those that are there promise to 
dedicate their time to do things that are useful to the TEI)
Monday: Meeting Day 1
Tuesday: Meeting Day 2
Wednesday: Meeting Day 3 with early departure. (Those that need 
to leave, try to stay until at least noon.

I would _only_ suggest those people who achieve a significant 
saving to come earlier (i.e. those getting penalised for not 
including a saturday). The saving must be more than an extra 
night's hotel and per diem of food.

Are there any serious objections to that? Remember that the more 
we spend the less money is left over for funding things like a 
potential web-Roma2 implementation.

Thanks Kevin, I appreciate that. I certainly will be there (and 
from the sounds of it some others).

I've put up a doodle for people to record what nights they will 
need hotel. This will be useful for Becky if doing a block 
booking, and/or all of us to know who is arriving/departing when. 
  Since I'm arriving on the Sat and leaving on the Wednesday, 
I've checked Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues Nights. Could everyone needing 
hotel fill it out?
