Hi,

It has come to my attention that several of you may not have received  
this email regarding logistics for the SEEK All-Hands meeting, so I  
am resending it to the 'seek-logistics' mailing list so that it  
reaches everyone concerned.  If you are planning on attending the all- 
hands meeting, please follow the instructions therein.  If you were  
not on the original mailing list but intend to attend the meeting,  
please contact Pam Griego to confirm that a hotel room has been  
reserved for you.  Thanks.

Matt
