[Air-L] Registration for Internet Research 11.0: Sustainability, Participation, Action, Gothenburg, Sweden, October 21-23, 2010 now open

[Ted Coopman]

All,

I (with help from Alex) have created a Tips for Travel IR 11 wiki page
on the AoIR website. I already pulled some informational posts with
links and put them on it. There are sections for Air Travel, Hotels,
and a Roommate Locator.

http://wiki.aoir.org/index.php?title=Travel_Tips_for_IR11

Have at it.
