From: "Mark Dodel"
So far we have not received any comments after my post a month ago so I'm sending this again to see if I can generate some early interest and if it is possible, we would like to announce the 2004 location at this years event in San Francisco.
Warpstock 2003 is now less then 3 months away (Have you made your reservations and registration yet?), and the Warpstock, Inc. board would like to know if there is any group interested in submitting a bid for the 2004 event. Things are progressing really well for 2003. The BayWarp group has things well under control and the Warpstock board would like to take the opportunity to get things rolling for next year.
Every year some people complain that the location is too far or too expensive for them to attend. Here is your chance to determine the location and the cost. So if you are interested in making a bid please send a letter outlining your ideas to
http://www.warpstock.org/about/bid_proposal.html for more information.

Warpstock, Inc., is a North Carolina corporation. The Warpstock annual conference is a gathering of OS/2 users, developers, and vendors from around the world for the purpose of education and advocacy. More information is available at the Warpstock web site : ------------ From: "Mark Dodel" Regarding my statement on the hotel room rate availability, the $85 per night rate is only available for 3 days before and up to 3 days after the weekend event. That rate is for a single or double king room. I appologize for saying 5 days in the original post. Also there has been some confusion about parking. Originally we briefly posted on the web site that parking was free for people staying at the hotel. That was incorrect and the site was updated a couple weeks ago with the correct information. "Parking is only $3 per day (a significant discount from the regular $13/day) for registered Warpstock attendees ("commuters" as well as hotel guests)."
