Wow, I just noticed that it is very difficult to find this historical 
info from the Eclipse 2007 Web site 
(http://www.eclipsecon.org/2007/index.php?page=home/)

I mean, they updated the site daily during the conference, and now that 
it's over, all the info about registering is not linked from the main 
page (because it's time sensitive).

I did find these via a Google search on "EclipseCon 2007 registration":
http://www.eclipsecon.org/2007/index.php?page=registration/
http://www.eclipsecon.org/2007/index.php?page=hotels/

And Bjorn's rough calculation for EclipseCon 2006: 
http://eclipse-projects.blogspot.com/2005/12/open-source-eclipsecon-budgeting.html

Usually there is a conference deal on hotels next to the convention 
center. Last year though, I found a lower rate at the Holiday Inn that 
was a mile walk down the road (18 minutes walking for me). Plus the 
convention center is right on the light rail system, so it is easy to 
get a hotel room closer to San Jose and take the light rail to the 
convention center.
