[STDS-802-16] deadline for visa invitation letter to Session #31 in Shenzhen



Folks,

I would like to remind you of the importance of early action to
obtain a visa for travel to Session #31 in Shenzhen.

Due to the weeklong May Day holiday, ZTE has set a deadline of 28
April for submission of your request for an invitation letter:
        http://ieee802.org/16/meetings/mtg31/invitation_req.doc

I suggest that you not wait that long. You also need to allow time
for processing of your visa application.

See the Session #31 web page <http://ieee802.org/16/meetings/mtg31>
for more information on visas, and also on preregistration. Recall
that on-line registration is in now open.
