For the second consecutive year, it will be held at the University of Ottawa. It will be hosted by the Logic and Foundations of Computing group (LFC). See our website at www.site.uottawa.ca/~phil/lfc/. The conference will be held on the weekend of October 21st and 22nd. A webpage for the conference will be available shortly. We will be asking for submissions for talks in early September. But we wanted to give people information on lodging now, as Ottawa can be busy that time of year. We have booked a block of rooms at: Quality Hotel Downtown Ottawa 290 Rideau Street Ottawa, ON K1N 5Y3 (P) 613-789-7511 These rooms are held for Friday and Saturday nights. The group number is 105626 and the group name is "Ottawa U-Math Dept". The rate is $99.00 plus tax. Guests may phone the hotel directly at 613-789-7511 to reserve and may quote either the group name or number to get the preferred rate.
