IEEE 802: Meeting Information Update Memo - 3rd Announcement
DATE: Thursday, May 30 2002
ATTN: All IEEE 802 Attendees
SUBJ: Last Chance for 802 Hotel Reservations - Book Now !!!
The cutoff date for IEEE 802 Room Reservations is tomorrow for both hotels
and the rooms are going fast, so Book your reservation NOW or you may wind
up stuck at a HoJo 20 miles away. You can always cancel/modify without
penalty if your plans should change. July is HIGH SEASON so once these
rooms are gone, it may be very difficult to find anything else.
Please note the split meeting so you can book at the correct hotel for your
Working Group meetings.
a) The Hyatt Regency Vancouver, will be the site for the July 2002 IEEE 802
Plenary Meeting as well as Working Groups 802.1, 802.11, 802.15, 802.16,
802.17, and 802.18. The IEEE 802 Opening Plenary will begin Monday, July
8th at 11:00am and 802 Working Group Meetings will begin at 1:00pm. Please
note: Some of the 802 Working Groups have scheduled meetings for Friday
morning, July 12th. Please visit the home web site for your Working Group

currently scheduled to be held from 1pm to 6pm on Friday, July 12th.
