Dear RIPE 25 Meeting Participants, We would like to inform you that there appears to be a shortage of availabe hotels in Amsterdam at the end of September. The Hotels that can offer a special rate when you book via the TERENA Secretariat are fully booked. It is therefore recommended *not* to contact TERENA Secretariat about hotelbookings. Some general information regarding hotels in Amsterdam is included below. Kind regards, Naomi de Bruyn RIPE NCC Meeting Registrations ----- Hotel information Rooms have to be reserved by the participants themselves.
