Colleagues,
The IEEE Next Generation BASE-T Study Group will meet Monday and Tuesday (Sept 24 & 25) at the IEEE 802.3 September 2012 Interim in Geneva Switzerland.
Registration and meeting details may be found at: http://www.ieee802.org/3/interims/index.html
You are strongly encouraged to make your hotel reservation and register for the meeting as soon as possible. Note that this interim is sponsored by the ITU, and hotel reservations need to be made on an individual basis.
As we are starting a new study group, part of our September interim meeting will review the IEEE-SA process. We will have presentations covering the Project Authorization Request (PAR), the Five Criteria (5C) and objectives.
