There is less than one week left until September 17th 2007, after which the cost of registration for the main conference increases by $150 for standard and ACM/ACM SIGART registrations, and by $100 for student registration; also the cost of registration for the workshops increase by $10. Currently standard registration costs $425 (main conference) and $45 (workshops); ACM/ACM SIGART members receive a discounted rate of $375 (main conference) and $40 (workshops); and student registration costs $180 (main conference) and $35 (workshops), but to benefit from these reduced rates you *must* register before September 17th 2007. Amongst other items, all main conference registration types include a ticket for the conference banquet on Monday 29th October at Ric’s Grill, Whistler. For more information about registration (including how to register), please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/registration.php While you are registering please consider arranging your accommodation with the conference hotel, the Fairmont Chateau Whistler. We have negotiated a special rate for K-CAP 2007 delegates of $149 (Canadian dollars) per night; a fantastic saving so you can stay where the action is. To benefit from this rate, you must book directly with the hotel, either by phone or online, before September 20th 2007. Please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/venue.php for details on how to book at this rate, along with other details about the hotel, such as its location and how to get there from Vancouver. The preliminary schedule is now available: please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/schedule.php for details. The deadline for applications for student bursaries and student assistants has been extended until Friday 14th September 2007. Student Bursaries are intended to contribute to the travel and living expenses for students participating in the K-CAP 2007 conference. We expect to allocate up to 6 such bursaries. Please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/students.php#bursaries for more information. Further, we need up to 6 student assistants to help us organize the workshops and conference. In return for these activities assistants will be allocated (possibly shared) free accommodation for 4 nights (from 27-31 October) in a twin bedded room at the conference hotel. Please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/students.php#assistants for more details on student assistants. For more details, and instructions on how to apply please see http://www.csd.abdn.ac.uk/kcap07/students.php. We look forward to seeing you in Whistler!
