[Mark Leggott]

Dear Repository Community,

Open Repositories 2013 is coming up soon - July 8-12 in beautiful Prince Edward Island. We had an awesome response to the request for proposals and an initial list of sessions is available at:

We are also getting final details in place for the Hackfest and Dev Challenge, but in the meantime we have an initial information page available at:

The Conference team is working hard on making sure the facilities are ready and that you also have an engaging set of social activities to meet with your colleagues and have fun. We want to encourage you to take advantage of our Early Bird registration, valid until May 10, after which the fee will go from $450 to $495. We would also encourage you to book your flights and accommodation as soon as you can to make sure you get a front row seat for what is shaping up to be a great conference. The main conference hotel (The Delta) will be releasing room held back for OR attendees by May 10, so if you wish to stay at the Conference hotel this is your chance to guarantee that will happen.

We look forward to seeing you in PEI!

Sincerely,

Jon Dunn, Sarah Shreeves (Program Co-Chairs) and Mark Leggott (Conference Chair)
