Hi Ray,

Just for clarification: the IETF block had 250 rooms at $209 and 50 
rooms at $270, but 95 of the $209 rooms were reserved internally, so 
the general IETF population had access to 155 rooms at $209 and 50 
rooms at $270 when the information went public?

These are exceedingly low numbers, although I realize that in this 
case it was the most that could be gotten at this hotel.
