After seeing the notice by so many members ( as well as one to me) I spoke to 
Nick Tomaso, Meetings Director. They had no notice.

Taking note that ICANN signs contracts w hotels, and pays meeting staff to 
manage interactions,  I said that ICANN has responsibility to investigate.

The secretariat of BC will send a survey to all BC members registered for 
Prague.
If you paid by AMEX, you have corp Conciege to appeal to. Some have Hilton 
Honors membership. However, I would ask, that even if you resolve for yourself, 
you fill in the Secretariat spreadsheet w information. When you booked. If you 
used ICANN website link, how many nights, when notified, what hotel moved to.

I am inviting chairs of other Constituencies to share information. As well as 
GAC.

If this kind of "walking of guests" can happen at a major chain, ICANN has a 
poor contract. If there are some kind of circumstances of necessity, ICANN shld 
advise community.


This is more than an inconvenience for us as active participants. It bodes ill 
for ICANN competency. I am assuming the  COO who should be accountable for 
smooth running of such details, understands this kind of issue negatively 
impacts ICANN and its image.

I am assured by Nick Tomaso that the meeting staff are addressing in a call 
tomorrow am w Hilton Prague. I will ask for public notice by COO on web site, 
and ask that the COO manage this with full disclosure and information to 
affected registrants.

Other suggestions are welcomed.
