[8023-POEP] Meeting parameters



Colleagues:

 

I am looking for a host for an interim meeting of the 802.3at and 802.3ay (maintenance) on the following dates:

 

17 Oct – 802.3ay, ten people

18 Oct – 802.3at, forty people

19 Oct – 802.3at, forty people

 

If you think that you could help by providing a meeting location for this, please be aware of the following limitations:

 

1)       Access to the facility can not require the visitors to sign and NDA or otherwise sign limitations on behavior.  Many corporate “badging” processes require visitors to sign in on what amounts to a contract.  This type of limitation is inappropriate for a technical forum such as the IEEE.

2)       Attendees will need access to tea/coffee/soda/lunch/snacks/etc.  Attendees can pay for these items, they need not be provided gratis.

3)       For the Oct 17 meeting, a teleconference will be required.  A speaker phone capable of calling an outside service would be suitable.

 

If this is to occur, then we need to finalize the arrangements and send the announcement not later than Monday September 17.  I realize this is a stretch, if you could help this would be greatly appreciated.  

 

One final word, you may jump through the hoops to help us out only to find that the meeting occurs somewhere else.  It is a sad consequence of this type of broadcast request for help that another competing offer may be accepted.  Please do not make any irreversible commitments based on this request and your desire to help.

 

Cheers

 

Mike
