[802.3_100GCU] IEEE 802.3bj March Plenary Meeting - Agenda and Call for Presentations



Dear Task Force Participants,

The IEEE P802.3bj Task Force will be meeting at the IEEE 802 March Plenary Session on the Big Island Hawaii, USA.  The IEEE P802.3bj Task Force will be meeting Tuesday March13 through Thursday, Noon, March 15.  Also, the Next Generation 100 Gb/s Optical Ethernet Study Group will be holding an adjacent / co-located interim on Monday morning (8am to 12pm), March 12, that will be used to address issues that are common to the Study Group and our Task Force.

 

Registration and meeting details may be found at http://802world.org/plenary/.  You are strongly encouraged to make your reservations as soon as possible. 

 

The agenda for the meeting will be working towards the development of a baseline with emphasis on making decisions to move forward.  This is an important meeting given that per our adopted timeline we want to leave the May meeting with Draft 1.0 being generated. 

 

Therefore, presentations for the week should be focused on proposals for the baseline, Presentations should be kept to 20 minutes in duration, excluding time for questions and answers.  Requests for presentation time greater than 20 minutes will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and the requestor should contact the chair prior to making the request to justify the additional time. 

 

Requests for presentation time must be made two Fridays preceding the meeting.  For the March Plenary meeting, requests for presentation time shall be made to me at jdambrosia@xxxxxxxx  and must be made by March 2 2012.  The presenter shall e-mail a PDF, soft-copy version of the presentation to me at jdambrosia@xxxxxxxx by Tuesday of the week preceding the meeting.  For the Nov Plenary, presentations must be submitted by March 6, 2012

 

As a reminder, please make sure that all requests for presentations or submissions of presentation material have no restrictive notices at the bottom of the email.  All such emails will be refused and requests / presentations will not be acknowledged. 

 

All individuals submitting presentations should review the Procedures for Presenters Page - http://www.ieee802.org/3/bj/public/presentproc.html.    

 

I would greatly appreciate presenters reviewing their own presentations to verify that they have followed the cited Presentation Style Guidelines.  Also, to support the web site search tool used by the IEEE P802.3 web site the 'Document Information' fields of the PDF file must be completed as follows:

 

Title: Title of presentation

Author: Name(s) of author(s)

Subject: IEEE P802.3bj 100 Gb/s Backplane and Copper Cable Task Force

 

As a reminder to the group, we are a contribution driven organization.   It should not be assumed by anyone that work will just get done without contributions to drive it.  Areas not moving forward will be brought to the attention of the Task Force for consideration on how to address.  . 

 

I look forward to seeing everyone on the Big Island!

 

Best Regards,

 

John D’Ambrosia
