I see that this was designed to allow converting onsite to remote at the early-bird tariff even after Feb 7. Good, so for those on the brink a decision isn’t forced on Feb 7 already. Given that the hotel link only comes with onsite registration, I’m distilling the following procedure: * Register for onsite now * Wait for the hotel link in the registration confirmation * Read the cancellation conditions, which don’t seem to be available otherwise Case 1: Unfavorable onsite hotel cancellation conditions * Convert the onsite registration to remote by mailing support@ * expect differential refund * all set for remote. Case 2: Favorable onsite hotel cancellation conditions * Book the onsite hotel * Wait until mid-March or so Case 2a: Travel still seems possible * all set for onsite (maybe book flight or train if not done yet). Case 2b: Travel conditions unfavorable, need to revert to onsite * Cancel hotel * Convert the onsite registration to remote by mailing support@ * expect differential refund * all set for remote. Any flaws (unnecessary steps, wrong steps, cancellation fees, increased registration costs) in my reasoning? Grüße, Carsten
