I recommend that all those going to Dconf book their travel arrangements ASAP!

Also, I remember last year some people had trouble getting visas in time -
there 
can be long bureaucratic delays. It's never too early to get passports and
visas 
straightened out.

The preferred hotel is the Aloft Silicon Valley. Be sure and book soon!

I booked speculatively last month and the flights were already filling up.  
Alaska Airlines has flights every two hours from Seattle and every 3-4  
hours from Portland. But the times can be pretty unfortunate... I imagine  
that since most colleges are winding down and graduating classes this time  
of year that is what is putting stress on the airline schedules...

There's a fair amount of commuting from Seattle - San Fran of tech workers.
It's 
a short enough flight to make that practical.
