[fc-announce] FC05 Hotel Reservations

[Stuart Schechter]

   We have selected the beautiful island of Dominica for Financial
Cryptography and Data Security 2005, and have now solidified the FC'05
conference hotel rates.  The conference hotel is the nicest on the
island and has offered us generous discounts, but it can only accomodate
about half of the expected number of attendees.

   WE EXPECT THE CONFERENCE HOTEL TO FILL UP MANY MONTHS BEFORE THE
CONFERENCE

   While other hotels options will be availble, those who would like to
obtain a discounted room and stay at the conference hotel should make
your reservations now.  These reservations can be cancelled without
penalty up to 21 days before the conferenence, so there's no reason not
to reserve a room even if you are not yet certain that you will be able
to attend.

   The conference dates are February 28 to March 3, 2005.
Your discounted accomodation options at the Fort Young Hotel are:
   
   US$80/night
   Standard room with twin to queen size bed.
