That's too bad. I was hoping that they would have a nice conference room
for talking with physicists from around the world that we could use (for
FREE). And I imagined using a Wiki site for groups to reserve time slots,
without putting a burden on the volunteer organizers who are probably
exhausted from putting this conference together. Oh, well.
If anyone has other ideas for involving people from around the world, I
think it would be a Good Thing. I don't know anything about Skype
unfortunately.

Does anyone know if the Aspen Center for Physics makes any conference calling facilities available to BoostCon? Because I was wondering, if special interest groups want to get together informally and have people call in and participate from wherever they are, could we do it?
I asked the program committee...it sounds like the answer is no. But there will be a wireless network so someone could set up Skype or something similar. So it would be great if people skilled in setting up this sort of computer-based channel could help out...
