[menog] Hotel Accommodation During the MENOG 2 Meeting

[Fahad AlShirawi]

Dear Abeer, All,

We where made aware of problems at the Sheraton a few days back. We are
currently in the process of relocating the venue. This will not affect the
dates of the event. Basically, this is what's happening... We'll hold MENOG
and the RIPE Regional side by side as planned, possibly at the Four Seasons
Hotel (to be confirmed over the next 3 days we hope). Rooms have been
blocked at the Four Seasons and more rooms will be blocked at a nearby hotel
(name to be announced shortly). We'll arrange for a shuttle from the nearby
hotel and from the Sheraton if anyone is staying there and can't be bothered
to cancel and relocate (please let us know) to the conference venue and
back.

In the meantime, please accept my personal apology on the situation we find
ourselves in. It was outside of anyone's control and couldn't have been
foreseen.


Regards,

Fahad.

Dear All, 
We have contacted Sheraton and Zaher Selim told me that the MENOG2 is
cancelled from the Sheraton hotel and will be taking place in Four Season
Hotel. Does anyone know what is going on?
