  16. <p>Dateline: Sept 14, 2006. This inaugural Boost conference promises
  17. to be the main face-to-face venue for all things Boost, from using
  18. libraries to writing them, from evangelizing Boost to deployment
  19. within your organization, from infrastructure and process to vision
  20. and mission, and from TR1 to TR2. Given the range and interests of
  21. the participants, the event is going to be intense and in-depth.</p>

  37. <p>Recognizing the breadth of the community, we are offering two
  38. primary tracks: the first three days will be focused mostly on the
  39. practical interests of Boost and TR1 end-users, and the last three
  40. will be directed more towards hard-core Boost developers, with one
  41. overlap day at midweek. Thus, the conference fosters interaction
  42. both within <em>and</em> across these tracks, with an emphasis on service
  43. to our user base.</p>
  44. <p>Sessions will run in the morning and evening, leaving a midday
  45. break of several hours so that attendees can get out and enjoy the
  46. town and its surroundings, or just to have time to work together in
  47. small, informal groups.</p>

  50. <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6" id="sessions" name="sessions">Sessions</a></h1>
  51. <p>In the spirit of Boost, many sessions will be participatory and/or
  52. collaborative in nature. The program committee is drafting a call
  53. for sessions that you can expect to see in the next few weeks. In
  54. the meantime, please raise any questions about—or ideas for—the
  55. conference on the <a class="reference" href="http://www.boost.org/more/mailing_lists.htm">Boost mailing lists</a>.</p>

  58. <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id7" id="venue" name="venue">Venue</a></h1>
  59. <p>The main venue for this conference will be the <a class="reference" href="http://www.aspenphys.org">Aspen Center for
  60. Physics</a> in Aspen, Colorado. The town of Aspen is known for its
  61. world-class cuisine and its envigorating, natural setting. As
  62. generations of scientists can attest, the Center's beautiful
  63. location and its low-key atmosphere create a unique and lively
  64. environment for thought, education, and collaboration.</p>

  66. <div class="section">
  67. <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id8" id="hotel" name="hotel">Hotel</a></h1>
  68. <p>The main conference hotel will be the <a class="reference" href="http://aspenmeadowsresort.dolce.com/">Aspen Meadows Resort</a>.
  69. Located within walking distance of the Physics Center, the Meadows
  70. provides 90 rooms, a restaurant, and overflow conference facilities
  71. should the event expand.</p>

  74. <h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id9" id="conference-size" name="conference-size">Conference Size</a></h1>
  75. <p>Much more than having a great number of attendees, it's important
  76. that this first BoostCon be a success, so we're starting small.
  77. Registration will initially be limited to just 100 places, except
  78. that we'll accomodate 200 participants on Wednesday, when the two
  79. main tracks overlap. Contingency plans are in place that <em>may</em> allow
  80. us to expand registration should demand prove overwhelming, but
  81. when registration opens we recommend securing your place early, in
  82. case that isn't possible.</p>
