Sounds like a temporary problem - I was able to register via the hotel site - so hopefully fixed soon.
FWIW, I was pleasantly surprised to see the hotel rate was lower than the last Montreal meeting for me and about USD$100 less per night than my corporate rate. Looking at IETF-102, the rate at the Fairmont was CAD $239 compared to CAD $169 for IETF-105 (about 30% less expensive)!

I seem to be getting an "unknown error" while using the hotel registration link. Anyone else having the same issue ?
I tried it in three different browsers.
