Layla,

如果確認預算方面還有空間的話，GASC 工?人員訂房的部分再麻煩您囉～

GASC 這邊需要兩間工?人員房間：

1. Fred + Pockey

2. Will

Hi Ernest,

Thanks a lot for the update.

Since Brian and I are sent by company (Oracle/Sun), we will take care of the hotel by ourselves. The speakers will also book hotel by themselves. I agree with you.

Fred, Pockey and Will, they are organizer and staff of the conference, thinking about they pay most of the travel cost by themselves, it will be very helpful to provide a lodging place for them. Providing two rooms for them is fine.

Let me know if there is any questions.

Thanks in advance,
Emily

Hi Emily,

SINICA just feedback us they don't have enough capacity for extra rooms or beds. so:

(1) for speakers: 

We provide accommodation information on website [1] for speakers, and let speakers book by themselves.

(2) for GASC organizers: Pockey, Fred, Emily (+ etc? we need a name list for admin team (team lead: Layla).)
You can find a hotel, and admin team lead Layla can help you on booking.

ps: 

There are total 90+ COSCUP organizers, and only 20 of whom comes out of Taipei can get room in SINICA. Others will stay at their home, rent house, friends'.

Hi Ernest,

Thanks a lot for the detail information.
We would like to say with most of other speakers, so we choose SINICA.

I just search from http://gao.sinica.edu.tw/huo-dong/room-online-en.php
What's the rate for double room and single room if COSCUP team help us to booked for speakers ? Also, do you recommend 3 nights or 4 nights? (If we have one day trip after conference, plan 4 nights ?  )


Thanks,
Emily

Hi Emily,

COSCUP team list a hotel information at http://wiki.coscup.org/hotel-2010 (temporarily, we may move it into event website.)

You can find the hotel price and traffic fare as reference. We also reserved some rooms in SINICA (very near our event venue). I will check with COSCUP team if we can add 8 GNOME speakers in this SINICA accommodation list.

The lodging price in Taipei would be USD40~120. We list some lodging places in the wiki page which are having better location with public traffic. Also, there's some traffic information about: airport to Taipei, Taipei Metro and Taxi :)

FYR.

Hi Ernest Chiang,

GNOME foundation are thinking about provide lodging for GNOME speakers besides the travel assistance,  we need to know the cost first before make the decision.

Can coscup team help us to arrange the lodging place for GNOME speakers?  Where are the most coscup speakers stay, could you provide the link of the hotel?

Also, if we plan:  8 people * 3 nights, what is the cost like ?

Thanks,
Emily
