You are talking about the hotel room which you are sharing with the
Ubuntu Local Community for their room party. You would pay Trevor
Jagoda from the Ubuntu Community for your half of it and he will pay
the hotel.

Hosting a room party receives a mention in the program book and on the
Room Party page of the website, if the room party informs our room
party person, Rachel Weisenfeld.

For participating in at least three hours worth of programmed events,
a participant receives a discounted weekend admission rate of $20. I
can provide you with a discount code for use on the web registration
form.

For participating in at least two hours worth of programmed events, a
participant receives a number of Whuffie (our Penguicon volunteering
bucks) equal to the number of hours. Five of these can be exchanged
for registration reimbursement.

Thanks a lot, Rich!
