The Silver Cloud Inn in Redmond (2122 152nd Avenue NE Redmond, WA 98052, http://www.silvercloud.com/redmond.php) is a reasonable hotel, quite close, with good eating options very close. Note that there is more than one Silver Cloud Inn in the area.

Brad Hards

Brad plans to arrive on 19 Jan 2011 and leave late on 28 Jan 2011. I plan to work from 21 Jan 2011 to 28 Jan 2011, covering pre-test setup activities, the actual plugfest, and a review at the end. This is also a good opportunity for planning of future development. I may be available on 19 / 20 Jan 2011, but this is mainly recovery time from the flight.
