The ICELIE-2008 Organizing Committees welcome questions from prospective participants. Due to the large number of site visitors, it is difficult to personally answer every e-mail. Therefore, this FAQ page ("frequently asked questions") will be periodically updated with answers to questions. Please feel free to submit questions at the CONTACT page, and revisit this page later to find answers. Answers may take a few days to appear, so your patience is greatly appreciated.

Travel Answers

A1. November weather in Orlando is generally mild. Average high/low temperatures are 79/59°F (26/15°C). A light sweater for evening activities is appropriate. Rainfall and humidity greatly diminishes compared to summer months. Comfortable, casual attire is perfectly acceptable at the conference. Good walking shoes are recommended for visiting the theme parks (e.g. Disney).
