the three nearest and most convenient hotels are given here,

SPEAKERS: We would like copies of all powerpoint/keynote talks for the
online archive. We would especially like to have these *before* your
talks, if at all possible, so that they can be uploaded onto one of our
STScI laptops before your session.
o * Please name your presentation files ,
e.g. aeinstein.ppt *
o * Please email your talk to tullos@stsci.edu, or be prepared to
have us transfer it via memory stick as soon as possible after you arrive. *

Webcasting. The entire workshop will be webcast in real time, and
archived. The live link is available through

You may want to pass this on to your colleagues. All available talks
will be made available as supporting material to the webcasts themselves.

Connectivity at STScI. The STScI Auditorium, where the workshop is
being held, has open-access wireless on our Visitor's Network. We also
have wireless and actual dhcp cables at various locations around the
Institute that you are welcome to use. For details, please consult this

Visitor's Network.
We are looking forward to having everybody here in a few days. Good
journey to everyone.
