Re: [802.3AZ] Sept. '09 802.3 Interim - ROOM BLOCK AND EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINES ARE APPROACHING - friendly reminder(s)

[Mike Bennett <mjbennett@xxxxxxx>]

Folks,

This is a friendly reminder to book your room and register for the 
interim meeting if you haven't done so already.

The 802.3az Task Force will meet Tuesday-Thursday, September 22-24, 
between 8:30 AM and 5PM CDT.  Our biggest ticket item so far is the 
possible restructuring of the document.

Also, as another friendly reminder, we still have not met the ballot 
return requirement so if you're an 802.3 voter, in the ballot group, and 
have not yet submitted a ballot, please do so.  The ballot closes on 
Monday, August 31, at 11:59 PM AOE.

I look forward to see you in Chicago.

Best regards,

Mike
