Update on the hotel situation:
Our headquarters hotel, the Thistle City Barbican Hotel, has released some more rooms so that there are now more Standard TWIN Rooms for the people who need them on nights of August 6 through 10. There are, however, no twins available on August 5th. There may be someavailable in the next week or two, so we have extended the deadline for registering with the hotel until the end of the month. There will be additional hotels listed once we have filled the Thistle City Barbican.

Hi Wikimania-team!
We tried to book one more room at the Thistle today (according to the website today should be the last day for registration). However, the hotel website claims that the Wikimania rates are not available anymore. Is the hotel fully booked? Or might there be some confusion concering the deadline? Are there any other recommendations for people who don't have a room yet?
Thanks Claudia
