For those of you who would like to attend either of these meetings at minimal cost, here is some information I gleaned largely over the Internet (no first hand experience!) which might be useful to someone:
*** 21ST INTERNATIONAL UNICODE CONFERENCE The 21st Unicode Conference (http://www.unicode.org/iuc/iuc21) will be at the following hotel: The Burlington Hotel (14-17 May 2002) Upper Leeson Street Dublin 4 Ireland *** JTC1/SC2/WG2 (20-23 May 2002) http://wwwold.dkuug.dk/JTC1/SC2/WG2/ Facilities in the Ballsbridge district of Dublin are presumably near The Burlington Hotel (15 minute walk?). Bed and Breakfast accommodation may be most easily found using the following URL: http://www.townandcountry.ie/ "Dublin South City Ballsbridge" has six such facilities. I found a couple places with single accommodation for as low as around US$35/night (those with bath/lavatory facilities en suite cost closer to US$60/night).
