I would greatly appreciate presenters reviewing their own
presentations to verify that they have followed the cited Presentation Style
Guidelines. Also, to support the web site search tool used by the IEEE
P802.3 web site the 'Document Information' fields of the PDF file must be
completed as follows: Title: Title of presentation Author: Name(s) of author(s) Subject: IEEE P802.3ba Task Force As a reminder individuals should not forward presentations
to our webmaster, Frank, asking him to post presentations. All should
note that files are not posted until they have been reviewed, so please follow
directions noted above. Additional meeting information – The 802.3 Opening Plenary starts Monday at 1pm, and is
typically completed by 6pm. The 802.3 Closing Plenary starts Thursday at 1pm. Individuals eligible to become 802.3 voters are reminded
that they must be at one of these two meetings to request voting rights. As a reminder to the group, we are a contribution driven
organization, and we do have a fairly large project underway. It should
not be assumed by anyone that work will just get done without contributions to
drive it. Areas not moving forward will be brought to the attention of
the Task Force for consideration on how to address; as such issues can not be
allowed to threaten the overall project schedule. I look forward to seeing everyone in Best Regards, John D’Ambrosia Chair, IEEE 802.3ba Task Force Tel: 717.460.8535 Email |
